nall or tnlS GUY. mere nave Deen numerous translations which text vary somewhat. We are returning you copy of this prophecy.
 "The discrepancies which we not ed, and which you may also notice are probably due to the variations in the translation of the text. On the whole it is a remarkable prophecy. It is as follows:"
 The real Antichrist will be one of the monarchs of his time, Lutheran Protestant. He will invoke God and give out His messenger, or apostle.
 This prince of lies will swear by the Bible. He will represent himself as the arm of the Most High, sent to chastise corrupt peoples.
 He will have only one arm, but his innumerable armies, who will take for their device the words, "God is with us," will resemble the internal regions.
 For a long time he will act by craft and strategy. His spies will overrun the earth, and he will be master of secrets of the mighty. He will have learned men in his pay, who will maintain and undertake to prove his celestial mission.
 A war will afford him the oppor- tunity of throwing off the mask. It will not be in the first instance a war which he will wage against a French monarch. But it will be one of such nature that after two weeks all will realize its universal character.
 Not only Christians, but Messel- mans and even more distant peoples will be involved. Armies will be in- volved from the four quarters of the earth.
 For the third week the angels will perceive that the man is Anti Christ and that all will become his slaves if they do not overthrow this con- queror.

 His words of imposture will resem- ble those of Christians, but his VOWS of all the human race.
 He will have an eagle in his arms, there will also be an eagle in the arms of his confederate. But the lat ter will be a Christian, and will die from the malediction of Pope Bene- dict who will be elected at the be- ginning of the reign of Antichrist.
 In order to conquer Antichrist, it will be necessary to kill more men than Rome ever contained. It will need the energies of all the kingdoms, because, the Leopard and the White Eagle will not be able to make an end of the Black Eagle without the aid of the prayers and the VOWS of the human race.
 Never will humanity have been faced with such a peril, because the triumph of the Antichrist would be that of the demon, who will have taken possession of his personality.
 For it has been said that twenty centuries after the incarnation of Word the beast will be incarnated in his turn and will menace the world with as many evils as the Divine h. carnation has brought it graces.
 Towards the 2,000 Antichrist will be made manifest. His army will surpass in number anything that can be imagined. There will be Christ ians among his cohorts and there will be Mohammedans among the defend CTS of the Lamb as well as some heather soldiers.
 For the first time the Lamb will be red-for blood will flow in the domains of the four elephants at once.
 The Black Eagle will hurl itself
