Some have lived in this world 50. years, some 60. yet for all that they be nothing prepared towards his coming: they think ever he will not come yet: but I tell you, that though his general coming be not yet: yet for all that be will come one day, and take us out of this world: and no doubt as he1 findeth us, so we shall have: if he […] us ready, and in the state of salvation, no doubt we shall be […] for ever world without end. Again, if he […] us in the state of damnation, we shall be damned world without end: there is no […], after we be ones past this world: no […] will help than, nor nothing that man is able to do for us. Therefore it is […] for every one of us to take […] betimes: let us not […] to long with our amendment, least peradventure we shall come to short: for no doubt we […] rewarded according unto our deserts.
