Chapter 7 ****



1 And when this is done the times will be ended, in a moment the second course will be ended, the four hours will come.

2 They shall be forced...There is damage to the manuscript here.

3 And, in the time of these, scornful and impious men will rule, saying that they are just.

4 And these will conceal the wrath of their minds, being treacherous men, self-pleasers, dissemblers in all their own affairs and

lovers of banquets at every hour of the day, gluttons, gourmands...There is damage to the manuscript here.

5 Devourers of the goods of the poor, saying that they do so on the ground of their justice, but in reality to destroy them. Complainers, deceitful, concealing themselves lest they should be recognised, impious, filled with lawlessness and iniquity from sunrise to sunset,

6 Saying: We shall have feastings and luxury, eating and drinking, yea we shall drink our fill, we shall be as princes.

7 And though their hands and their hearts touch unclean things, yet their mouth will speak great things, and they will say furthermore:

8 Touch me not, lest thou shouldst pollute me in the place where I stand...There is damage to the manuscript here.
