John Trapp on Revelation 2:13

Verſe 13. Even where Satans ſeat is] There was the Court of King Attalus (—diſcedat ab aulâ qui velit eſſe pius; Flee thee away, O thou ſeer, for this is the Kings Court, Amos 7.13.) and there was after wards the ſeat of the Roman perſecuting Proconſuls, Qui ab aſcenſ[illegible: 1 letter]re ſuo Satana perurgebantur, as Bernard hath it. Such a ſeat of Satan is both old and new Rome. At Constantinople (which was called new Rome) Arrius that arch-heretike, Sedens in latrina effudit intestina, voided his entrails at the ſtool, and left Mahometiſme there behinde him as his excrement. Yet, as at Pergamus alſo God had a Church, ſo hath he ſtill even at Conſtantinople; the Patriarch whereof Cyril hath lately ſet forth a Confeſſion of the faith of thoſe Eaſtern Churches, agreeable in all points almoſt to the Proteſtant religion, but diametrally oppoſite to Popery.

Thou holdest fast] As with tooth and nail, [non-Latin text not transcribed] or by main ſtrength.

Who was ſlain] An honour not granted to the Angels of heaven, as Latimer was wont to ſay.
