Excerpt from The Homilies of the Anglo-Saxon Church, Vol. 1: The First Part, Containing the Sermones Catholici, or Homilies of Ælfric
Be such tribulations as have never been from the beginning of the world. Many false Christs shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ,' and shall work many signs and won ders, to deceive mankind; and also the elect, if it may be. And unless Almighty God shorten those days, all man kind will perish; but for his elect he will shorten those.
