It devoured and crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from all the beasts that were before it, and it had (B)ten horns. While I was contemplating the horns, behold, (C)another horn, a little one, came up among them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and behold, [a]this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and (D)a mouth speaking great boasts.

Its (I)wheels were a burning fire.
