( 4 )

by his tender love in his Son, am enabled to rejoice in hope of a glorious immortality, by his free grace bestowed on me, who am very undeſerving of the least of his mercy. But I rejoice in hope, that when my sun goes down here, that I shall meet the blessed Sun of righteousness with healing in his wings. It is no matter how the lamp of this life goes out, if it be lighted again by the immortal beams of Christ’s righteousness.—It is better that my spirit be carried from the scaffold by Angels, than from a bed of down, to be dragged to where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.
