( 24 )
house were broken to pieces, as if all ⟨nature⟩ had been changed; so that they ⟨trembled⟩ and wished themselves elsewhere; when ⟨upon⟩ a great clap of thunder, with a whirlwind the doors flew open, and a mighty ⟨rushing⟩ of wind entered, with the hisses of ⟨serpents,⟩ shrieks and cries, upon which he ⟨lamentably⟩ cried out murder, and there was such ⟨roaring⟩ in the hall, as if all the devils in ⟨hell⟩ had been there. When day-light ⟨appeared⟩ they took the boldness to enter the ⟨room⟩ and found his brains beaten out against ⟨the⟩ wall, and the floor sprinkled with ⟨blood⟩ and his eyes torn out, very terrible to ⟨behold⟩; but missing his body; they went ⟨in⟩ search of it, and found it on the ⟨dungheap⟩ mangled and mashed to pieces. So ⟨ended⟩ this miserable wretch's life, forsaking ⟨God⟩ and all goodness, and given up to his ⟨implacable⟩ enemy, which we hope may ⟨stand⟩ not only as a fearful, but lasting ⟨monument⟩ and warning to others. His mangled ⟨brain⟩ in respect to his function, learning, and ⟨other⟩ qualifications, was decently buried.
