Who should not, who would not be moved hereby to endure any thing that by man can be inflicted for professing Christ, rather then by denying him, loose that exceedingly excelling weight ⟨p. 38⟩of glory: Hereof when S. Paul, being rapt into the third heaven, had but a glimpse, he saw and heard [Greek or Hebrew] unutterable matters, 1which man cannot possibly express.
