2. So this natural Balm, when the blessing of the word is even added to it, can (at utmost) but keep the body living, till the life• taper be burnt out: or after death, give a short and insensible preservation to it, in the sarcophagal grave. But this Balm gives life after death; life against death, life without death. cTo whom shall we go? Lord, thou hast the words of eternal life. The Apostle doth so sound it, the Saints in Heaven have so found it, and we, if we believe it, if we receive it, shall perceive it, to be the word of life. 2And as Augustine of God, Omne bonum nostrum vel ipse, vel ab ipso: All our good is either God, or from God: so all our ordinary means of good from God is vel verbum, vel de verbo, either the word, or by the word.
