holy and blessed Trinity I doe render up my soul into thy hands and commit it with the mediation of my Redeemer praising thee for all thy dispensation that it has pleased thee to confer upon me and even for this praise and honor and thanks of this time forth for evermore Dr. Sibbald My Lord I trust you now behold with the Eye of Faith the Son of Righteousness shining upon your soul and will chearfully submit unto him who hath redeemed us through his bloud even the bloud of Jesus Christ that you may appear at the Tribunal of God clothed with the white robe of his unspoted Righteousness The Lord grant that with the eye of Faith you may now see the heavens opened and Jesus Christ standing at the right hand of God ready to receive you into his arms of mercy Cambridg Then the Earl turning to the Executioner said shall I put on another Cap must this hair be turned up from my neck there are three of my servants to give satisfaction Dr. Sibbald My Lord I hope you are able to give all that are about you satisfaction you are assured that God is reconciled unto you through the bloud of Christ Jesus and the Spirit of the Lord witnesseth to you that Christ is become now a Jesus unto you My Lord fasten the eyes of your Faith upon Jesus the Author and finisher of your salvation who himself was brought to a violent death for the redemption of mankinde he chearfully submitted to his Fathers good pleasure in it and for us blessed and holy is he that has part my Lord in the first resurrection That is in the first riser Jesus Christ who is both the Resurrection and the Life over him the second death shall have no power 't is the unspeakable joy of a believer That at the hour of death his soul hath an immediate passage from this earthly Tabernacle to that Region of endless Glory yea to the presence of God himself in whose presence there is fulness of joy and at whose right hand there are pleasures for evermore Then the Earl of Cambridg turning to the Executioner said which way is it that you would have me lie Sir Executioner The Executioner pointing to the front of the Scaffold The Earl replyed What my head this way Then the Under-sheriffs son said My Lord the Order is that you should lay your head towards the High-Court of Justice The Earl of Cambridg after a little discourse in private with some of his servants kneeled down on the side of the Scaffold and prayed a while to himself When he had finished his prayers D. Sibbald spake to him thus My Lord I humbly beseech God That you may now with a holy and Christian courage give up your soul to the hand of your Faithful Creator and gracious Redeemer and not be dismaied with any sad apprehension of the Terrors of this death And what a blessed and glorious exchange you shall make within a very few minutes Then with a Chearful and smiling Countenance The Earl embracing the Dr. in his Arms said Cambridg Truly Sir I do take you in mine arms and truly I bless God for it I do not fear I have an assurance that is grounded here laying his hand upon his heart Now that gives me more true joy then ever I had I pass out of a miserable world to go into an Eternal and glorious Kingdom and Sir though I have been a most sinful creature yet Gods mercy I know is infinite and I bless my God for it I go with so clear a Conscience That I know not the man that I have personally injured Dr. Sibbald My Lord it is a marvellous great satisfaction that at this last hour you can say so I beseech the Lord for his eternal mercy strengthen your faith that in the very moment of your dissolution you may see the arms of the Lord Jesus stretched out ready to receive your soul Then the Earl of Cambridg embracing those his servants which were there present said to each of them You have been very faithful to me and the Lord bless you Cambridg Then turning to the Executioner said I shall say a very short prayer to my God while I lie down there and when I stretch out my hand my right hand then Sir do your duty and I do freely forgive you and so I do all the world Dr. Sibbald The Lord in great mercy go along with you and bring you to the possession of everlasting life strengthening your Faith in Jesus Christ This is a passage my Lord a short passage unto eternal glory I hope through the free grace of your gracious God you are now able to say O Death where is thy sting O Grave where is thy victory and to make this comfortable answer Blessed be God blessed be God who hath given me an assurance of victory through Christ Jesus Then the Earl of Cambridg said to the Executioner Must I lie all along Execut. Yes and 't please your Lordship Camb. When I stretch out my hands but I will fit my Head first tell me if I be right and how you would have me lie Execut. Your shirt must be pin'd back for it lies too high upon your shoulders which was done accordingly Dr Sibbald My Lord now now lift up your eyes unto Jesus Christ and cast your self now into the everlasting arms of your most gracious Redeemer Then the Earl having layd his Head over the Block said Is this right Dr Sibbald Jesus the Son of David have mercy upon you Execut.
