The Revelation of St. John (1558) - Page 19

The seven-headed dragon, dragging the stars with its tail, stands before the woman about to give birth; it is cast down by an angel after the woman’s son is snatched away to God. Revelation 12.
original Latin: "Draco septem capitibus, cauda stellas trahens, ante parturientem mulierem, ab angelo deijcitur, mulieris filio ad deum rapto. Apoc. 12."

The seven-headed dragon spews water after the woman / her little boy is taken up into heaven. Angels fight against the Dragon. Revelation 12.
original German: "Der sibenköpffig trach scheußt wasser nach dem weib / deren kneblin wirdt zum himel auffgenommen. Engel streiten widern Trachen. Apoc. 12."

This passage illustrates one of the most iconic confrontations in the New Testament. The "Woman Clothed with the Sun" is often interpreted as a symbol for the Church or the Virgin Mary. Her child, whom the dragon intends to devour, represents Christ, who is "caught up" to God to escape the dragon's reach.

The dragon itself, described with seven heads and ten horns, is identified later in the biblical text as the Devil or Satan. The "water" mentioned in the German translation refers to the dragon pouring a flood out of its mouth to drown the woman as she flees into the wilderness, only for the earth to open up and swallow the stream to protect her. The "angels fighting" refers to the War in Heaven, where the Archangel Michael leads the celestial host to defeat the dragon.
