Thus we see a foul fall of filthy Pride, never thought upon before it come, of the most: Like Dives, who never remembered hell until he was in it. Then he cried. But if thou once be there,1 then never hope for helpe: for Ab inferno nulla est redemptic, thou shalt never come out. Amend then before death come.2

Therefore because that which is written, is written for our learning, I have gathered from them both, four kinds of death.
