Isle Patmos, where the beloved Disciple, solitary
and afonef witnessed one of the most remarkable
revelations record. As soon as the Beasts said
ComeFa and see,n John beheid, at the opening of
the various seals, mentioned in the 9th Chapter
OF Revelation, white unbridled horse whose rider
was armed with bow and arrows, with crown
upon his head-Ihen red horse, running as if gsa-
ded on, with warrior upon him armed with great
sword--then black horse, with stern Justice upon
him-and last a" Pale Horse Carrying Death,
with He'll following in his train: Then comes the
contest between mel and the beasts of the earth"

taste, also produce good moral effects by directing
the minds of beholders 10 scenes in Bible History
