PERSECUTIONS OF THE CHURCH AND FALL OF THE PAGAN EMPIRE AT ROME
CHAPTER VI
1. And I saw the Lamb had opened one of the seven seals, and I heard one of the four living creatures, as it were the voice of thunder, saying: Come and see.
2. And I saw; and behold a white horse, and he that sat on him had a bow, and there was a crown given him, and he went forth conquering that he might conquer.
3. And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second living creature, saying: Come and see.
4. And there went out another horse that was red: and to him that sat thereon, it was given that he should take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another, and a great sword was given to him.
5. And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying: Come and see. And behold a black horse, and he that sat on him had a pair of scales in his hand.
6. And I heard as it were a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying: Two pounds of wheat for a penny, and thrice two pounds of barley for a penny, and see that thou hurt not the wine and the oil.
