And the last, that God in his good time erecteth the minds of the afflicted,1 and openeth their mouths to praise his name & to protect his goodness, that he hath brought again their soul from the pit, and hath shined upon them with the light of life▪ Which effect of the grace of God, because you have both seen in others, and felt in your self many times, you have great cause to hope and expect the return of his comforting hand in due season, who also shall once determine these conflicting days, and set us in that peace which shall never be interrupted, and wherein all tears shall be wiped away from2 our faces for ever.
