Hence arises a demand for every sort of material which human invention can employ, either usefully or ornamentally, in building, dress, equipage, or household furniture ; for the fossils and minerals contained in the bowels of the earth, the precious metals, and the precious stones

18:4-20 Come out of her my people so that you are not partakers in her sins and so that you do not receive her plagues because her sins have reached up to Heaven and God has remembered her sins; Reward her double even as she rewarded you and for her double it according to her works; In the cup which she has filled fill it doubly for her; How much she has glorified herself and lived delicately! so therefore give her much torment and sorrow because she says in her heart: “I sit a queen and am no widow and shall see no sorrow” therefore her plagues shall come in one day death and mourning and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire because strong is the Lord God who judges her; and the kings of the Earth who have committed fornication and lived delicately with her shall grieve for her and lament for her from the fear of her torment when standing far away they shall see the smoke of her burning saying: Disaster! Disaster! That great city Babylon! that mighty city because in one hour your judgment has come! and the merchants of the Earth shall weep and mourn over her because no man buys their merchandise any more; the merchandise of gold and silver and precious stones and of pearls and fine linen and purple and silk and scarlet and all your wood and all manner vessels of ivory and all manner of vessels of most precious wood and of brass and iron and marble and cinnamon and odours and ointments and frankincense and wine and oil and fine flour and wheat and beasts and sheep and horses and chariots and slaves and the souls of men; and the fruits that your soul lusted after have departed from you and all things which were dainty and good have departed from you and you shall never find them any more at all; The merchants of these things who were made rich by her shall stand far away from the fear of her torment weeping and wailing and you all will say: Disaster! Disaster! that great city which was clothed in fine linen and purple and scarlet and decked with gold and precious stones and pearls! because in one hour such enormous riches have come to nothing; and every shipmaster and all the crews in ships and sailors and as many as trade by sea stood far away and cried when they saw the smoke from her burning! They were saying: What city is like this great city! And they threw dust on their heads and cried weeping and wailing saying: Disaster disaster; that great city of which all those who had ships in the sea were made rich because of her costliness because in one hour she was made desolate!
