By Josephus Ben Gorion. Whereunto is added a brief of the ten captivities; with the pourtrait of the Roman rams, and engins of battery, &c. As also of Jerusalem; with the fearful and presaging apparitions that were seen in the air before her ruins. Moreover, there is a parallel of the late times and crimes in London, with those in Jerusalem.
