Observe the language used respecting her in this very chapter. " She shall be utterly burned with fire ; — in one hour her riches shall come to nought ; — in PROTESTANT INSTITUTE OF SCOTLAND. 313 one hour shall she be made desolate ; — with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all. " Talk of the Eomish system being reformed ! How can it be if these sayings are true 1 And there are other parallel Scriptures. Is not that wicked destined to be " con-... sumed and destroyed ? " Is not the man of sin the son of per- dition 1 Is not the beast to go into perdition ? Why, the city is not then to be repaired, but to be razed to the foundation and consumed with fire, till not a fragment of her decrees, her orders, her rites, and her canons, shall remain to desecrate God's earth with its presence. Amid the awful predictions with which tiie volume of inspiration closes, not one ray of hope gilds the destiny of Papal Rome. On her horizon, there rests but one dense unbroken cloud of portentous judgment ; nor does any other prospect meet the eye of the observer, but the lurid glare of those lightnings by which Babylon is to be consigned to utter and everlasting destruction.
