Revelation12:14
Verſe 14. Two wings of a great Eagle] That is, ſufficient means of ſafety and protection from petill, Exod. 19.4. By this great Eagle, ſome mighty perſonage ſeems to be deſigned, Ezek. 17.3, 7. And this may very well be Conſtantine, whoſe peculiar ſirname was Great: but yet ſo (ſaith an Interpreter) as that the great honour and riches, wherewith, as with wings,M Forbes. he upon good intention endowed the Church, is an occaſion to make her flee to the wildernes, all true and ſincere Religion by degrees decaying in the viſible Church.
