we_o must_v be_v content_a to_o yield_v he_o obedience_n and_o to_o live_v as_o become_v his_o servant_n or_o he_o will_v not_o save_v we_o and_o therefore_o only_a the_o godly_a that_o serve_v he_o in_o their_o life_n can_v with_o comfort_n commend_v their_o soul_n unto_o he_o at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o death_n and_o say_v as_o steven_n do_v lord_n jesus_n receive_v my_o spirit_n he_o pray_v

as_o the_o life_n to_o come_v many_o in_o their_o life_n and_o at_o the_o time_n of_o their_o death_n be_v careful_a for_o their_o body_n think_v of_o the_o great_a pain_n which_o their_o body_n be_v to_o suffer_v when_o death_n seize_v upon_o they_o and_o take_v care_n how_o they_o shall_v be_v able_a to_o overcome_v the_o same_o this_o care_n trouble_v many_o that_o be_v good_a christian_n who_o be_v the_o more_o afraid_a of_o death_n for_o the_o pain_n thereof_o and_o imagine_v the_o pain_n to_o be_v great_a than_o it_o be_v that_o death_n be_v painful_a there_o be_v not_o any_o question_n si_fw-mi nulla_fw-la esset_fw-la mortis_fw-la amaritudo_fw-la non_fw-la magna_fw-la esset_fw-la martyrum_fw-la fortitudo_fw-la say_v augustine_n if_o there_o be_v no_o sharpness_n and_o pain_n in_o death_n it_o be_v no_o great_a fortitude_n in_o the_o martyr_n to_o suffer_v it_o but_o though_o death_n be_v painful_a yet_o we_o must_v remember_v this_o for_o our_o comfort_n that_o it_o will_v be_v no_o more_o painful_a to_o we_o than_o it_o have_v be_v to_o the_o godly_a in_o all_o age_n and_o therefore_o why_o shall_v we_o be_v afraid_a to_o undergo_v that_o which_o all_o the_o godly_a have_v undergo_v before_o we_o will_v not_o any_o man_n be_v content_a to_o be_v put_v to_o that_o whereunto_o the_o king_n put_v his_o chief_a favourite_n for_o he_o will_v think_v with_o himself_o if_o i_o be_v put_v to_o no_o more_o than_o the_o king_n favourite_n be_v i_o shall_v fare_v well_o enough_o the_o godly_a you_o know_v be_v god_n chief_a favourite_n god_n love_v and_o favour_n they_o above_o all_o other_o if_o therefore_o they_o have_v suffer_v the_o pain_n of_o death_n and_o have_v not_o be_v exempt_v by_o god_n from_o it_o we_o may_v well_o be_v the_o less_o careful_a to_o undergo_v it_o and_o may_v assure_v ourselves_o that_o though_o the_o pain_n be_v never_o so_o great_a yet_o christ_n who_o have_v redeem_v both_o our_o soul_n and_o body_n will_v enable_v we_o

may_v cheerful_o commend_v our_o soul_n unto_o christ_n as_o steven_n here_o do_v lord_n jesus_n receive_v my_o spirit_n doct._n i_o may_v hence_o observe_v the_o immortality_n of_o the_o soul_n that_o though_o the_o body_n do_v die_v yet_o the_o soul_n be_v immortal_a this_o be_v signify_v by_o those_o word_n of_o solomon_n 12.7_o eccles_n 12.7_o that_o the_o body_n shall_v return_v to_o

when_o he_o pray_v the_o jew_n do_v common_o stand_v when_o they_o pray_v therefore_o christ_n allude_v to_o this_o their_o custom_n mark_v 11._o when_o you_o stand_v say_v he_o and_o pray_v if_o you_o have_v aught_o against_o any_o man_n forgive_v he_o and_o the_o jew_n have_v a_o saying_n sine_fw-la stationibus_fw-la non_fw-la consisteret_fw-la mundus_fw-la that_o the_o world_n can_v not_o

which_o be_v magnificentia_fw-la depositio_fw-la a_o lay_v aside_o of_o our_o greatness_n and_o thus_o king_n and_o prince_n when_o they_o pray_v unto_o god_n do_v uncover_v their_o head_n lay_v aside_o their_o state_n and_o acknowledge_v thereby_o that_o they_o be_v god_n servant_n so_o we_o prostrate_v ourselves_o and_o fall_v down_o on_o our_o knee_n as_o steven_n here_o do_v in_o token_n
