About This Book
When Manasses set up a carved image in the house of the Lord, and built altars in the two courts of the house, to all the host of Heaven, and us'd inchantments and witchcraft, and familiar spirits, and for his great wickedness was invaded by the army of Asserhadon King of Assyria, and carried captive to Babylon; the book of the Law was lost till the eighteenth year of his grandson Josiah. Then Hilkiah the High Priest, upon repairing the Temple, found it there: and the King lamented that their fathers had not done after the words of the book, and commanded that it should be read to the people, and caused the people to renew the holy covenant with God. This is the book of the Law now extant.

CHAP. VI.
Of the ten Kingdoms represented by the ten horns of the fourth Beast.
Now by the wars above described the Western Empire of the Romans , about the time that Rome was besieged and taken by the Goths , became broken into the following ten kingdoms.
1. The kingdom of the Vandals and Alans in Spain and Africa .
2. The kingdom of the Suevians in Spain .
3. The kingdom of the Visigoths .
4. The kingdom of the Alans in Gallia .
5. The kingdom of the Burgundians .
6. The kingdom of the Franks .
7. The kingdom of the Britains .
8. The kingdom of the Hunns .
9. The kingdom of the Lombards .
10. The kingdom of Ravenna .
Seven of these kingdoms are thus mentioned by Sigonius . 1 Honorio regnante , in Pannoniam 2 Hunni , in Hispaniam 3 Vandali , 4 Alani , 5 Suevi & 6 Gothi , in Galliam 4 Alani 7 Burgundiones & 6 Gothi , certis sedibus permissis, accepti . Add the Franks , Britains , and Lombards , and you have the ten: for these arose about the same time with the seven. But let us view them severally.
1. The Kings of the Vandals were, A.C. 407 Godegesilus , 407 Gunderic , 426 Geiseric , 477 Hunneric , 484 Gundemund , 496 Thrasamund , 513 Geiseric , 530 Gelimer . Godegesilus led them into Gallia A.C. 406, Gunderic into Spain A.C. 409, Geiseric into Africa A.C. 427; and Gelimer was conquered by Belisarius A.C. 533. Their kingdom lasted in Gallia , Spain and Africa together 126 years; and in Africa they were very potent. The Alans had only two Kings of their own in Spain , Resplendial , and Ataces , Utacus or Othacar . Under Resplendial they went into France A.C. 407, and into Spain A.C. 409. Ataces was slain with almost all his army by Vallia King of the Visigoths A.C. 419. And then the remainder of these Alans subjected themselves to Gunderic King of the Vandals in BĹtica , and went afterwards with them into Africa , as I learn out of Procopius . Whence the Kings of the Vandals styled themselves Kings of the Vandals and Alans ; as may be seen in the Edict of Hunneric recited by Victor in his Vandalic persecution. In conjunction with the Chatti , these Alans gave the name of Cathalaunia , or Catth-Alania , to the Province which is still so called. These Alans had also Gepides among them; and therefore the Gepides came into Pannonia before the Alans left it. There they became subject to the Hunns till the death of Attila A.C. 454, and at length were conquered by the Ostrogoths .
2. The Kings of the Suevians were, A.C. 407 Ermeric , 458 Rechila , 448 Rechiarius , 458 Maldra , 460 Frumarius , 463 Regismund . And after some other Kings who are unknown, reigned A.C. 558 Theudomir , 568 Miro , 582 Euboricus , and 583 Andeca . This kingdom, after it had been once seated in Spain , remained always in GallĂŚcia and Lusitania . Ermeric after the fall of the Alan kingdom, enlarged it into all GallĂŚcia , forcing the Vandals to retire into BĹtica and the Carthaginian Province. This kingdom lasted 177 years according to Isidorus , and then was subdued by Leovigildus King of the Visigoths , and made a Province of his kingdom A.C. 585.
3. The Kings of the Visigoths were, A.C. 400 Alaric , 410 Athaulphus , 415 Sergeric and Vallia , 419 Theoderic , 451 Thorismund , 452 Theoderic , 465 Euric , 482 Alaric , 505 Gensalaric , 526 Amalaric , 531 Theudius , 548 Theudisclus , &c. I date this kingdom from the time that Alaric left Thrace and Greece ...
