Rh shal be ″ the signe of thy comming, and of the consummation of the world? And answering, said to them: Beware that no man ″ seduce you:  for many shal come in my name saying, ″ I am Christ; and they shal seduce many. For you shal heare of warres, & bruits of warres. See that ye be not troubled. For these things must be done, but the end is not yet. For Nation shal rise against Nation, and Kingdom against Kingdom; and there shal be pestilences, and famines, and earth-quakes in places; and al these things are the beginnings of sorowes.✠ Then * shal they deliver you into tribulation, and shal kil you: and you shal be odious to al Nations for my names sake. And then many shal be scandalized: and they shal deliver up one an other: and they shal hate one an other. And many False-Prophets shal rise, and shal seduce many. And because ″ iniquitie shal abound, the charitie of many shal waxe cold. But he that shal persevere to the end, he shal be saved.✠ And this Ghospel of the Kingdom ″ shal be preached in the whole world, for a testimonie to al Nations, and then shal come the consummation.

Therfore when you shal see ″ the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the Prophet, standing in the holy place (he that readeth, let him understand) then they that are in Jewrie, let them flee to the mountaines: and he that is on the house-top let him not come downe to take any thing out of his house: and he that is in the field, let him not goe back to take his coate. And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those dayes. But pray that your flight be not in the winter or on the Sabboth. For there shal be then great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, neither shal be. And unles those dayes had been shortned, no flesh should be saved: but for the Elect the dayes ″ shal be shortned. Then if any man shal say unto you, Loe here is Christ, or there; doe not beleeve him. For there shal rise false Christes and false-Prophets, and shal shew ″ great signes and wonders, so that the Elect also (if it be possible) may be induced into errour. Loe I have foretold you. If therfore they shal say unto you: Behold he is in the desert; goe ye not out: Behold ″ in the closets, beleeve it not. For as lightning commeth out of the east, and appeareth even into the west, so shal also the advent of the Sonne of man be. Whersoever the body is, thither shal the Egles also be gathered togeather.

And ″ immediatly after the tribulation of those dayes * the sunne shal be darkned, and the moone shal not give her light, and the starres shal fal from Heauen, and the powers of Heaven shal be moved: and then shal appeare the signe of the Sonne of man in Heaven: and then shal al Tribes of the earth bewaile: and they shal see the Sonne of man comming in the cloudes of Heaven with much power and majestie. And he shal send his Angels with a trumpet, and a great voice: and they shal gather togeather his Elect from the foure windes, from the furthest parts of Heaven even to the ends thereof. And of the figtree learne a parable: When now the bough thereof is tender, and the leauves come forth, you know that sommer is nigh. So you Rh
