now_o fear_v of_o death_n be_v no_o less_o than_o diffidence_n of_o that_o redemption_n therefore_o saint_n shall_v be_v very_o watchful_a that_o they_o harbour_v no_o sad_a nor_o hard_a thought_n

to_o our_o flesh_n yet_o that_o flesh_n shall_v be_v a_o gainer_n by_o its_o paleness_n and_o find_v nothing_o in_o death_n but_o a_o quiet_a rest_n till_o it_o shall_v put_v on_o incorruption_n but_o to_o the_o spirit_n death_n be_v a_o messenger_n from_o god_n and_o christ_n of_o glad_a tiding_n and_o the_o foot_n of_o those_o which_o bring_v glad_a tiding_n shall_v be_v beatiful_a to_o we_o let_v death_n when_o he_o come_v find_v he_o be_v a_o long_o look_v for_o friend_n that_o he_o be_v not_o come_v before_o he_o be_v welcome_a but_o shall_v have_v be_v welcome_a if_o he_o have_v

in_o the_o room_n of_o sin_n so_o as_o before_o we_o have_v sin_n in_o all_o now_o we_o have_v love_n in_o all_o and_o though_o death_n to_o saint_n have_v not_o the_o sting_n of_o sin_n yet_o it_o
