take_v from_o he_o therefore_o he_o shall_v be_v to_o the_o faithful_a no_o more_o death_n but_o only_o a_o sleep_n as_o saint_n paul_n in_o the_o second_o epistle_n to_o timothy_n 1._o the_o first_o chapter_n do_v witness_n and_o declare_v very_o plain_o and_o comfortable_o where_o he_o say_v christ_n jesus_n our_o saviour_n have_v take_v the_o strength_n from_o death_n and_o bring_v we_o the_o light_n life_n and_o a_o be_v by_o mean_n of_o the_o gospel_n that_o shall_v never_o corrupt_v nor_o perish_v yea_o the_o faithful_a shall_v never_o taste_v of_o death_n as_o christ_n witness_v himself_o be_v the_o very_a truth_n john_n the_o eight_o chapter_n where_o he_o say_v thus_o very_o very_o i_o tell_v you_o 8_o if_o any_o man_n will_v keep_v my_o word_n by_o faith_n he_o shall_v not_o taste_v of_o death_n everlasting_o look_v and_o mark_v well_o what_o a_o noble_a virtuous_a and_o right_a belief_n be_v for_o that_o overcome_v and_o drive_v away_o all_o adversity_n all_o plague_n sin_n &_o death_n itself_o and_o a_o faithful_a person_n go_v clean_o through_o death_n to_o the_o right_a life_n as_o our_o lord_n christ_n again_o witness_v john_n 5._o 5_o where_o he_o say_v thus_o very_o very_o i_o say_v unto_o you_o he_o that_o hear_v my_o word_n and_o believe_v on_o he_o that_o have_v send_v i_o he_o have_v everlasting_a life_n and_o shall_v not_o enter_v into_o

and_o enjoy_v everlasting_a life_n namely_o to_o hear_v god_n word_n as_o christ_n say_v and_o believe_v the_o same_o it_o require_v no_o great_a cunning_n wisdom_n strength_n might_n liveland_n and_o preparation_n to_o overcome_v death_n but_o this_o overcome_v victory_n or_o triumph_n be_v in_o these_o two_o point_n to_o hear_v and_o to_o believe_v sure_o my_o think_v this_o be_v a_o marvelous_a victory_n that_o a_o poor_a wretched_a weak_a and_o sick_a man_n that_o by_o reason_n of_o weakness_n can_v scant_o move_v hand_n nor_o foot_n can_v overcome_v so_o great_a a_o giant_n as_o death_n only_o with_o a_o christian-like_a hear_n and_o a_o believe_a heart_n but_o thus_o can_v christ_n avenge_v himself_o upon_o such_o a_o strong_a enemy_n death_n that_o will_v glad_o have_v eat_v and_o swallow_a up_o christ_n that_o he_o have_v so_o wonderful_o take_v away_o the_o strength_n from_o death_n that_o a_o poor_a wretched_a man_n may_v overcome_v death_n &_o beside_o that_o may_v mock_v and_o laugh_v he_o to_o scorn_n that_o be_v i_o think_v death_n right_o to_o despise_v and_o contemn_v but_o how_o come_v that_o to_o pass_v that_o we_o overrun_v and_o weary_v by_o death_n shall_v nevertheless_o abide_v still_o alive_a that_o be_v as_o christ_n himself_o say_v john_n 11._o 11._o where_o he_o say_v thus_o i_o be_o the_o resurrection_n and_o the_o life_n who_o so_o ever_o believe_v on_o i_o shall_v live_v although_o he_o seem_v to_o die_v and_o whosoever_o live_v and_o believe_v on_o i_o shall_v nevermore_o die_v this_o be_v the_o right_a and_o only_a cause_n that_o the_o faithful_a yea_o in_o the_o midst_n of_o death_n embrace_v the_o right_a life_n christ_n our_o lord_n that_o give_v again_o unto_o they_o life_n for_o as_o little_a now_o can_v death_n any_o more_o weary_a or_o overcome_v our_o lord_n or_o hold_v he_o in_o death_n so_o little_o can_v he_o either_o punish_v or_o quarrel_v with_o any_o faithful_a man_n for_o see_v that_o christ_n which_o be_v the_o life_n do_v still_o live_v and_o can_v nevermore_o be_v overcome_v so_o may_v the_o faithful_a never_o abide_v prisoner_n in_o death_n but_o he_o break_v out_o valiant_o with_o christ_n and_o sing_v the_o merry_a song_n of_o thanks_n give_v and_o of_o triumph_n death_n be_v swallow_v up_o in_o victory_n for_o where_o be_v thy_o sting_n thus_o shall_v a_o christian_a soldier_n look_v death_n between_o the_o brow_n and_o manful_o wage_v battle_n with_o he_o or_o else_o will_v death_n eat_v up_o and_o swallow_v the_o whole_a world_n but_o if_o you_o will_v with_o a_o true_a faith_n
