...Downs? The County armed. Huge Webley & Scott revolvers were issued to the local police, a fact that produced eight column headlines in the London Press. Brass-helmeted firemen were mobilized.

The Messiah was expected to arrive under this "Star of God," which was called both Chiun (Amos, 5:26) and Remphan (Acts, 7:43). In Babylon and Susa, whence came the Wise Men, Saturn was visible at the time...
