The Doom Of The Wicked City Is Certain
1 Woe to that bloodthirsty city, which is all full of lies and robbery, and will not leave off from ravishing. 2 There a man may hear scourging, rushing, the noise of the wheels, the crying of the horses, and the rolling of the chariots. 3 There the horsemen get up with naked swords, and glistering spears. There lieth a multitude slain, and a great heap of dead bodies. There is no end of dead corpses: yea, men fall upon their bodies.
