2I lookedG3708, and beholdG2400, a 1whiteG3022 horseG2462, and the one who satG2521 on it hadG2192 a bowG5115; and 2a crownG4735 was givenG1325 to him, and he wentG1831 outG1831 3conqueringG3528 and to conquerG3528.
3WhenG3753 He brokeG455 the secondG1208 sealG4973, I heardG191 the 4secondG1208 livingG2226 creatureG2226 sayingG3004, “ComeG20645!” 4And anotherG243, 6a redG4450 horseG2462, wentG1831 outG1831; and to him who satG2521 on it, it was grantedG1325 to 7takeG2983 peaceG1515 from the earthG1093, and that people would killG4969 oneG240 anotherG240; and a largeG3173 swordG3162 was givenG1325 to him.
