Barlowe encouraged against the feare of death To whom he answered That hauing beene diuerse times in places of daunger where death was neither so present nor yet so certaine he had felt the weakenesse of the flesh and therefore now in this great conflict desired God to assist and strengthen him and so with eyes fixed on Heauen after some passionate pauses and breathings he began his prayer in effect following O GOD Creator of all things and iudge of all men thou hast let me knowe by warrant out of thy worde that Sathan is then most busie when our end is neerest and that Sathan being resisted will flee I humbly beseech thee to assist me in this my last combat and seeing thou acceptest euen of our desires as of our actes accept I beseech thee of my desires to resist him as of true resistance and perfect by thy grace what thou seest in my flesh to be fraile and weake giue me patience to beare as becommeth me this iust punishment inflicted vpon me by so Honorable a triall Graunt me the inward comfort of thy spirit let thy spirit scale vnto my soule an assurance of thy mercies lift my soule aboue all earthly cogitations and when my life and body shall part send thy blessed Angels which may receiue my soule and conuaye it to thy ioyes in heauen Then concluding his prayer for all Estates of the Realme he shut vp all with the Lords prayer reiterating this petition Lord Iesus forgiue vs our trespasses Lord Iesus receiue my soule Then desiring to be informed what was fit for him to doe for disposing himselfe fitly for the blocke the Executioner on his knees presented himselfe asking him forgiuenesse to whom the Earle said I forgiue thee thou art welcome vnto me thou art the minister of iustice At which time Doctor Montford requested him to rehearse the Creed which he did repeating euery article after the Diuines So opening and putting off his doublet he was in a Scarlet Wastecoate and then ready to lye downe he said he would onely stretch foorth his Armes and spread them abroade for then he was ready So bowing towards the blocke the Doctors requested him to say the two first verses of the 51. Psalme which he did and then inclining his bodie he sayd In humilitie and obedience to thy commaundement in obedience to thy ordinance to thy good pleasure O God I prostrate my selfe to my deserued punishment Lord be mercifull to thy prostrate seruant so lyeng flatte along on the bordes and laying downe his head and fitting it vpon the blocke stretched out his armes with these last wordes which he was requested to say Lord into thy hands I commend my spirite His head was seuered from his bodie by the axe at three stroakes But the first deadly and absolutely depriuing all sence and motion Thomas Montford William Barlow Lib. 1.
