John Trapp on Revelation 7:14

Verſe 14 Which came out of great tribulation] It is but a delicacy that men dream of, to divide Chriſt and his croſſe. The Biſhop of London, when he had degraded Richard Bayfeild Martyr kneeling upon the higheſt ſtep of the Altar, he ſmote him ſo hard on the breſt with his Croſier-ſt[illegible: 1 letter]ff, that he threw him down backward, and brake his head ſo that he ſwounded:Act. and Mon. And when he came to himſelf again, he thanked God that he was delivered from the malignant Church of Antichriſt, and that he was come into the true Church of Chriſt militant, and I hope ſhall be anon with him in the Church triumphant, &c.

And made them white] Other bloud ſtains what is waſhed in it; this bloud of the ſpotleſſe Lamb, whitens and putifies.
