NOTE 2. —Homer writes of “the glorious deeds of Trojan warriors and of brass-clad

NOTE 3.—The historian Gibbon says: “The arms of the republic, sometimes vanquished
in battle, always victorious in war, advanced with rapid steps to the Euphrates, the
Danube, the Rhine, and the ocean; and the images of gold, or silver, or brass, that might
serve to represent the nations and their kings, were successively broken by the iron
monarchy of Rome.”—Decline and Fall, Vol. 3.

NOTE 4.—“The iron legs are the fourth kingdom: and that is the Roman, the strongest of
all the kingdoms before it. But the feet, part of iron, and part of clay, prefigure the Roman
Empire to be so divided, as that it should never unite again: which is equally fulfilled.
Forasmuch as the Roman territory is occupied by foreign nations or rebels. And we see . .
. barbarous nations mixed with our armies, cities, and provinces.” —T. Newton in
“Dissertations on the Prophecies.”

These ten kingdoms came into existence in the territory of the Roman Empire between
the years A.D. 351 and 476. They were the result of the barbarian invasions of those
times. The kingdoms were as follows: The Alemanni (Germany), the Franks (France), the
Burgundians (Switzerland), the Suevi (Portugal), the Vandals (who have been destroyed),
the Anglo-Saxons (England), the Visigoths (Spain), the Ostrogoths (who have been
destroyed), the Heruli (who have been destroyed), the Lombards (Italy).”—C. B. Haynes
in “Our Lord’s Return.”
