                                          Chapter 8 – The Seven Trumpets
                   chapter  and  all  of  chapter  9.  The  seven


               angels  prepare  themselves  to  sound.  Their


               sounding  comes  in  as  a  complement  to  the


               prophecy of Daniel 2 and 7, commencing with


               the breaking up of the old Roman empire into


               its  ten  divisions,  of  which,  in  the  first  four



               trumpets, we have a description.



               VERSE 7. The first angel sounded, and there


               followed hail and fire mingled with blood, and


               they were cast upon the earth: and the third


               part of trees was burnt up, and all green grass


               was burnt up.



               A full exposition of the seven trumpets is given


               in a work entitled, An Exposition of the Seven


               Trumpets of Revelation VIII and IX, published
