Note (return) — Rev. ANDREW LEE, A.M. (continued 5)

When the veil which had been spread over these things was drawn aside, and they broke out to the view of this man of God, he seems to have been enraptured and lost in ecstacy. He prostrated himself in adoration of the celestial messenger: But was forbidden by the angel —"See, thou do it not; I am thy fellow servant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus.—Worship God." This happened at the beginning of the joyful part of the vision, when the triumphs of Christianity were first disclosed. [88]
