The great mistery of the great whore unfolded: and antichrists kingdom revealed unto destruction. In answer to many false doctrines and principles which Babylons merchants have traded with, being held forth by the professed ministers, and teachers, and professors in England, Ireland, and Scotland, taken under their owne hands, and from their owne mouths, sent forth by them from time to time, against the despised people of the Lord called Quakers, who are of the seed of that woman, who hath been long fled into wildernes. Also an invasion upon the great city Babylon, with the spoling of her golden cup, and delicate merchandize, whereby she hath deceived the world and nations: and herein is declared the spoyling of her prey, in this answer to the multitude of doctrines held forth by the many false sects, which have lost the key of knowledge, and been o foot since the apostles dayes, called Anabaptists, Independents, Presbyters, Ranters, and many others; who out of their own mouths have manifested themselves not to be of a true descent from the true Christian Churches: but it's discovered that they have been all made drunk with the wine of fornication received from the whore which hath sitten upon the beast, after whom the world hath wondred. By George Fox.
