need_v not_o to_o report_v see_v all_o the_o country_n round_o can_v but_o with_o one_o consent_n confess_v and_o acknowledge_v that_o he_o be_v a_o man_n worthy_a of_o great_a commendation_n and_o a_o rare_a pattern_n for_o man_n of_o his_o rank_n and_o fashion_n to_o look_v upon_o three_o for_o his_o charity_n and_o love_n towards_o the_o poor_a many_o of_o they_o be_v here_o present_a can_v testify_v that_o in_o their_o necessity_n he_o be_v to_o they_o more_o like_o a_o father_n than_o a_o friend_n a_o man_n that_o be_v ever_o openhanded_a in_o any_o good_a cause_n especial_o to_o the_o relief_n of_o such_o who_o he_o know_v to_o be_v in_o necessity_n and_o want_n i_o speak_v but_o what_o i_o know_v have_v a_o long_a time_n have_v my_o be_v here_o where_o his_o worship_n have_v his_o dwell_n and_o beside_o my_o private_a testimony_n his_o liberality_n at_o the_o last_o feast_n of_o christ_n nativity_n and_o his_o legacy_n now_o at_o his_o death_n of_o twenty_o pound_n to_o the_o use_n and_o benefit_n of_o the_o poor_a and_o this_o parish_n be_v sufficient_a testimony_n of_o the_o same_o last_o of_o all_o as_o concern_v his_o love_n to_o those_o that_o be_v his_o as_o be_v say_v enemy_n and_o adversary_n of_o his_o state_n and_o fortune_n have_v receive_v especial_a commandment_n from_o his_o own_o mouth_n i_o can_v but_o say_v something_o confess_v i_o must_v that_o loath_a i_o be_o to_o speak_v too_o much_o and_o yet_o his_o own_o request_n no_o less_o to_o i_o than_o a_o command_n compel_v i_o to_o speak_v a_o little_a because_o i_o hear_v he_o say_v so_o much_o there_o be_v say_v he_o that_o to_o my_o think_n by_o sinister_a course_n upon_o suppose_a ground_n endeavour_n to_o arm_n themselves_o against_o i_o and_o my_o state_n but_o in_o the_o mean_a while_n god_n know_v my_o heart_n how_o willing_a i_o have_v still_o be_v to_o live_v with_o they_o in_o peace_n without_o revenge_n and_o hereupon_o he_o make_v this_o comparison_n in_o my_o understanding_n most_o fit_v to_o his_o former_a word_n my_o hart_n say_v he_o resemble_v the_o upper_a part_n of_o the_o world_n which_o you_o know_v say_v he_o be_v always_o clear_a and_o bright_a of_o itself_o though_o the_o air_n below_o be_v never_o so_o much_o distemper_v with_o storm_n and_o thunder_n so_o i_o quoth_v he_o i_o thank_v my_o god_n notwithstanding_o these_o thing_n have_v still_o a_o patient_a mind_n i_o be_o still_o content_v and_o my_o heart_n remain_v still_o joyful_a in_o the_o lord_n i_o stand_v resolve_v in_o all_o thing_n to_o yield_v up_o myself_o in_o holy_a obedience_n to_o the_o will_n of_o god_n and_o thus_o sit_v then_o with_o myself_o alone_o in_o the_o porch_n of_o this_o temple_n wherein_o we_o be_v i_o shall_v entreat_v you_o when_o you_o shall_v stand_v to_o preach_v my_o funeral_n sermon_n in_o this_o church_n where_o i_o intend_v to_o lie_v when_o god_n shall_v call_v i_o say_v he_o to_o deliver_v and_o testify_v these_o thing_n unto_o the_o world_n both_o of_o i_o and_o from_o i_o by_o this_o that_o have_v be_v say_v you_o may_v then_o plain_o see_v that_o the_o life_n of_o this_o good_a man_n be_v not_o unto_o himself_o but_o unto_o to_o god_n if_o we_o live_v we_o live_v unto_o the_o lord_n last_o to_o speak_v of_o his_o death_n i_o must_v begin_v with_o sickness_n which_o be_v to_o he_o &_o be_v to_o all_o the_o messenger_n of_o death_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o he_o be_v but_o a_o young_a man_n for_o year_n yet_o have_v be_v long_o visit_v with_o exceed_a sickness_n he_o have_v long_o wait_v as_o it_o be_v for_o his_o exchange_a time_n and_o for_o that_o cause_n as_o i_o know_v and_o as_o other_o who_o he_o love_v can_v testify_v he_o do_v daily_o exercise_v himself_o in_o the_o meditation_n of_o mortality_n and_o in_o time_n of_o ease_n care_v to_o set_v his_o house_n in_o order_n to_o the_o intent_n that_o if_o sickness_n shall_v come_v sudden_o he_o may_v be_v free_a from_o worldly_a care_n and_o so_o more_o cheerful_o prepare_v himself_o to_o god_n for_o this_o cause_n for_o the_o space_n well-nye_a of_o two_o year_n past_a as_o i_o can_v remember_v he_o have_v have_v his_o testament_n always_o ready_a so_o that_o be_v now_o at_o last_o sudden_o arrest_v with_o the_o messenger_n of_o death_n all_o the_o while_o he_o lie_v in_o the_o mercy_n of_o god_n upon_o his_o deathbed_n to_o the_o comfort_n of_o all_o those_o that_o see_v and_o hear_v he_o he_o always_o call_v upon_o the_o name_n of_o christ_n yea_o as_o often_o as_o he_o receive_v any_o physical_a help_n for_o no_o mean_n be_v neglect_v for_o his_o preservation_n and_o life_n if_o god_n will_v he_o never_o receive_v any_o aid_n but_o he_o pray_v unto_o god_n to_o give_v it_o a_o blessing_n and_o when_o he_o speak_v to_o none_o he_o will_v yet_o lift_v up_o his_o eye_n in_o token_n of_o lift_v his_o heart_n to_o god_n and_o the_o sacrament_n of_o the_o body_n and_o blood_n of_o christ_n he_o receive_v in_o his_o extremity_n most_o cheerful_o most_o thankful_o and_o at_o last_o in_o a_o great_a conflict_n he_o get_v a_o glorious_a victory_n and_o short_o after_o in_o peace_n and_o meekness_n resign_v his_o spirit_n into_o the_o hand_n of_o god_n thus_o he_o that_o be_v in_o his_o life_n religious_a in_o his_o sickness_n comfortable_a and_o in_o his_o death_n most_o bless_v by_o die_v to_o the_o lord_n be_v go_v to_o god_n and_o now_o enjoy_v the_o blessedness_n of_o heaven_n in_o the_o fruition_n whereof_o let_v we_o leave_v he_o now_o to_o dwell_v for_o ever_o and_o strive_v and_o endeavour_n in_o our_o life_n to_o imitate_v his_o virtue_n that_o we_o as_o he_o have_v do_v may_v die_v at_o last_o the_o death_n of_o the_o righteous_a and_o that_o our_o last_o end_n may_v be_v like_o he_o and_o that_o we_o may_v be_v fellow-heire_n as_o he_o be_v of_o the_o same_o inheritance_n with_o jesus_n christ_n to_o who_o with_o the_o father_n and_o the_o holy_a ghost_n be_v all_o honour_n and_o glory_n now_o and_o forever_o amen_n finis_fw-la
