The last Article of our belief, which with good luck shutteth up the rest, is 1this, And life everlasting. We have heard and understood that the souls of men are immortal, and that our bodies do rise again in the end of the world. We have confessed that this is our belief. It felloweth now in the latter end of the Creed, whether it is, that the immortal soul, and body raised up again shall come. Therefore in our confession we say. And life everlasting, that is, I believe that I 2shall have life, and live for ever both in body and soul. And that everlastingness verily is perpetual and hath no end, as a little before is proved out of the holy Scriptures.
