So David, in time of distress and danger; aInto thy hands, O Lord, I commend my spirit: So our Saviour, on the Cross, at point of death, using also the same words; bFather, into thy hands I commend my Spirit: So blessed Steven here, drawing now his last breath; Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. So S. Peter exhorteth all good Christians to do: cLet them in well-doing commit their souls unto God. And so S. Paul professeth that he had done: dI know whom I have trusted (to wit, with my Soul) and to whom I have committed it.
