Deu[illegible: 1 letter] 30.11. clearly, that the ſimpleſt of men may conceive it. But it is little in compariſon of the volumes of School-Doctours and Popiſh-Decretals, wherewith the world was peſtered, when the Bible lay locked up and obſcured. We may well ſay of it as S. Bartholomew (quoted by Dionyſius) ſaid of Divinity, [non-Latin text not transcribed], that in ſundry reſpects it is both a little and a great Book.

Neither the beaſt that ariſeth out of the ſea,Chap. 13. nor the other that ariſeth out of the earth ſhall be able to do it. [non-Latin text not transcribed].
