Chap. xvii. 1. And there came an Angel and talked with me, faying unto me, Come hither, I will fhew unte thee the Judgment of the great WHORE, that fitteth upon many Waters:

2. With whom the KINGS of the Earth have committed FORNICATION, and the Inhabiters of the Earth have been made drunk with the Wine of her Fornication.
