Saint Peter citeth the 16 Psalm in the second of the Acts, of Christ his descending into hell, saying: This man being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God, after you had taken with wicked hands, you have crucified and slain, whom God hath raised up, loosing the sorrows of death, because it was impossible that he should be holden of it. For David saith concerning him, I beheld the Lord always before me: For he is at my right hand that I should not be shaken. Therefore did my heart receive comfort, and my tongue rejoiced, and so my flesh doth rest in hope. Because thou shalt not leave my soul in hell, nor suffer thine holy one to see corruption. Thou hast made the ways of life known unto me, and thou shalt replenish me with gladness in thy sight.
