and_o i_o will_v give_v you_o the_o crown_n of_o life_n that_o be_v to_o say_v stand_v out_o till_o the_o consummation_n of_o the_o ten_o persecution_n wherewith_o you_o will_v be_v try_v and_o you_o

to_o the_o cruelty_n of_o roman_a paganism_n for_o the_o profession_n of_o your_o religion_n this_o therefore_o will_v be_v a_o crown_n of_o life_n unto_o you_o this_o be_v according_a to_o that_o

this_o smyrnian_a church_n under_o the_o pagan_a cruelty_n in_o a_o eminent_a manner_n wherefore_o when_o they_o have_v win_v their_o freedom_n it_o be_v a_o crown_n of_o life_n to_o they_o by_o the_o

say_v unto_o 11._o the_o church_n this_o be_v a_o usual_a epiphonema_n to_o parable_n plain_o intimate_v that_o what_o hitherto_o have_v be_v say_v be_v a_o parabolicall_a prophecy_n and_o the_o nature_n of_o a_o prophecy_n be_v to_o foretell_v such_o thing_n as_o be_v to_o be_v transact_v here_o on_o earth_n and_o therefore_o where_o the_o promise_n be_v not_o divine_a or_o concern_v the_o state_n after_o this_o life_n the_o epiphonema_n follow_v as_o be_v very_o conspicuous_a in_o the_o promise_n to_o the_o church_n of_o thyatira_n which_o be_v the_o first_o example_n of_o the_o epiphonema_n come_v last_o of_o all_o which_o be_v a_o sign_n that_o the_o whole_a epistle_n there_o be_v prophetical_a verse_n 26._o and_o he_o that_o overcome_v and_o keep_v my_o word_n unto_o the_o end_n to_o he_o will_v i_o give_v power_n over_o the_o nation_n etc._n etc._n which_o therefore_o concern_v the_o stage_n of_o this_o earth_n and_o therefore_o this_o promise_n here_o of_o the_o crown_n of_o life_n before_o the_o epiphonema_n i_o will_v interpret_v of_o a_o reward_n in_o this_o life_n on_o this_o earth_n according_a as_o i_o have_v expound_v the_o passage_n but_o now_o that_o which_o follow_v this_o epiphonema_n be_v a_o promise_n of_o another_o sort_n viz._n he_o that_o overcome_v shall_v not_o be_v hurt_v of_o the_o second_o death_n for_o it_o be_v the_o secure_n of_o a_o bless_a immortality_n after_o this_o life_n and_o seem_v far_a to_o correspond_v with_o that_o passage_n in_o the_o apocalypse_n ch._n 20._o v._n 6._o bless_a and_o holy_a be_v he_o that_o have_v part_n in_o the_o first_o resurrection_n on_o such_o the_o second_o death_n have_v no_o power_n wherefore_o though_o not_o according_a to_o the_o inference_n of_o rigid_a syllogism_n yet_o according_a to_o those_o nice_a and_o delicate_a hint_n in_o prophetical_a intimation_n i_o will_v conclude_v that_o the_o promise_n of_o their_o portion_n in_o the_o first_o resurrection_n be_v here_o propose_v to_o those_o afflict_a smyrnian_o which_o be_v the_o proper_a portion_n of_o martyr_n and_o confessor_n according_a to_o the_o opinion_n of_o the_o primitive_a church_n as_o mr._n mede_n have_v learned_o and_o judicious_o observe_v which_o grant_v do_v huge_o corroborate_v this_o application_n of_o the_o epistle_n to_o the_o church_n in_o smyrna_n to_o this_o interval_n which_o contain_v the_o time_n of_o all_o the_o suffering_n in_o a_o manner_n of_o the_o primitive_a martyr_n the_o promise_n of_o a_o bless_a immortality_n have_v be_v very_o proper_a and_o accommodate_v to_o this_o smyrnian_a state_n of_o the_o church_n that_o be_v so_o frequent_o to_o lose_v their_o life_n for_o profession_n of_o the_o gospel_n but_o for_o it_o to_o be_v intimate_v to_o they_o that_o these_o shall_v have_v their_o portion_n in_o the_o first_o resurrection_n which_o be_v proper_a to_o martyr_n as_o appear_v by_o the_o place_n above_o quote_v be_v so_o characteristical_a of_o this_o
