Hear thou the things which must come to pass in the last times   There shall be famine and war and earthquakes in diverse places   Snow and ice and great drought shall there be   And many dissentions amongst people   Blasphemy inequity envy and villainy   Indolence pride and intemperance   So that every man shall speak that which pleaseth him   And the priests shall not have peace amongst themselves   Shall sacrifice unto making deceit for mind   Therefore will I not look upon them   Then shall the priests behold the people   Departing from the house of the Lord and   Turning unto the world and setting up   Landmarks in the house of God   They shall claim for themselves many things   And places that are lost and shall be   Subject unto Caesar as also they were   Of all times giving poll taxes of the cities   Even gold and silver   And the chief men of the city shall be condemned   And their substance brought into the treasuries of the kings   And they shall be killed   For there shall be great disturbance throughout all the people   And death also   The house of the Lord shall be desolate   And their altars shall be abhorred   So that spiders weave their webs there   The place of holiness too shall be corrupted   Priests all corrupted   Agony shall increase   Virtue shall be overcome   Joy perish   And gladness depart   In those days evil shall abound   There shall be respecters of persons   Hymns shall seize out of the house of the Lord   Truth shall be no more   Covetousness shall abound amongst the priests   And the bright man shall not be found   On some nation shall arise there the last time a king   A lover of the Lord   Who shall hold rule not or long   He shall leave two sons   The first is named after the first letter A   The second named after the eight letter H   The first shall die before the second   Thereafter shall rise two princes to oppress the nations   Under whose hands there shall be a very great famine   In the right hand part of the east   So that nation shall rise against nation   And be driven out from their own borders   Again another king shall rise   A crafty man   Who shall command a golden image of Caesar to be made   Therefore martyrdom shall abound   Then shall faith return unto the servants of the Lord   And holiness shall be multiplied   And agony increased   The mountains shall be comforted   And shall drop down sweepeth the fire from the face   Of the number of the saints maybe accomplished   After a little space there shall arise another king out of the east   A lover of the Lord   Who shall cause all good things and necessary to abound in the house of the Lord   He shall show mercy unto the widows and the needy   And command a royal gift to be given unto the priests   In his days shall be abundance of all things   And after that again another king shall arise in the southern part of the world   And shall hold rule but a little space   In whose days the treasuries shall fall because of the wages of the soldiers   So that the substance of all the age shall be commanded   And given to the king   Thereafter shall there be plenty of corn and wine and oil   But great dearness of money   So that the substance of gold and silver shall be given for corn   And there shall be great dearness   And at that time there shall be very great risings of the sea   So that no man shall tell news to any man   The kings of the earth and the princes and the captains shall be troubled   And no man shall speak freely   Grey hairs shall be seen upon boys   And the young shall not give place unto the aged   After that shall rise yet another king   A crafty man who will hold rule for a short space   In whose days there shall be all manner of evils   Even the death of the race of men from the east   Even unto Babylon   And thereafter death and famine and sword   In the land of Cain and even unto Rome   Then shall all the fountains of water and wells boil over   And be turned into blood into dust and blood   The heaven shall be moved   And the stars shall fall unto the earth   The sun shall be cut in half like the moon   And the moon shall not give her light   There shall be great signs and wonders in those days   When Antichrist draws near   These are the signs unto them that dwell in the earth   In those days the pains of great revile shall come upon them   In those days when Antichrist now draweth near   These are the signs   Woe unto them that dwell on the earth   In the last days a great king shall come   Woe unto them who build   For they shall not inhabit   Woe unto them that break up the follow for they shall labour without a cause   When I was a child in the belly of my mother!   Woe unto them that make marriages for unto man each shall nay beget sons   Desolation!   Woe unto them that join house to house   Or field to field   When I was a child in the palace of my father!   For all fields shall be consumed with fire   Annihilation!   Woe unto them that will not look unto themselves while titled   Silence!   For they shall be condemned   Silence!   Woe unto them that stay away from the poor   Silence!   When he asked him   When I was a child in the belly of my mother!   I am the son   When I was a child in the cannon of my father!   I am father of all   I am the father most high   I am the father of all spirits   These are the sad signs of the ending of the world   When I was a child in the belly of my mother!   When I was a child in the palace of my father!   Desolation!   There will be famine and great pestilence   Annihilation!   Then shall all men be lead captive amongst all nations   Take me to my dead Christ!   And shall fall by the edge of the sword   And shall fall by the edge of the sword   Take me to my dead Christ!   Then all men shall be lead captive amongst all nations   Take me to my dead Christ!   From shore to shore   Take me to my dead Christ!   I am the son of mine   I am the father of all   I am the father most high   Carry me from shore to shore!   All men shall be led captive   And all shall die by the edge of the sword   Take me to my dead chrism!   For when I was a child in the belly of my mother!   For when I was a child in the palace of my father!   Desolation!   All shall die by the edge of the sword   Silence!   All shall die by the edge of the sword   Take me to my dead Christ!   All shall fall by the edge of the sword   Take me to my dead Christ!   All shall be reaped by the sickles   Take me to my dead Christ!   Of the turning burning   Take me to my dead Christ!   Take me from shore to shore!   Turning and burning   Turning and turning   Take me to my dead Christ!   Carry me from shore to shore!
