Excerpt from Remarks Upon the Dramatic Arrangement of the Apocalypse, or Book of Revelation (the Unveiling of Jesus Christ): With a Concise View of the Myth and Purport of the Vision, to Which Is Added a Glossary of Symbolic Terms, With Their Supposed Analogical Meanings As will appear in the present work, a comparison of the arrangement of the ancient Greek tragedy with that of the Apocalypse can hardly be drawn without suggest ing the resemblance between the two. Pursuing this comparison, the writer has been led to notice the ar rangements of the vision, separating the dramatic por tion of it from the introductory part; again separating the dramatic actions from what appeared to be in the places of prologue and epilogue; adopting the choral divisions discriminating between scenes in heaven and scenes in earth; tracing out the principal character in the person of the Conqueror, and giving to the exodus and catastrophe the prominence to which they are entitled.
