As for Luther, he was oft taken with a great pain in his breast, about the mouth of the stomach, and thought his Death when it came would be sudden; which made him say, Feri Domine, feri clementer, quia ipse paratus sum: strike Lord, strike mercifully, for I am ready] Having preached his last Sermon at Wittenberg, Jan. 17. he took his journey the 23. to Count Mansfield's Country, whither he was called. When he came thither, he was grown so weak, that they almost despaired of his life; yet by the use of fomentations he had so much ease, as that he preached sometime, and did other work from Jan. 29. to Febr. 17. The last day of his life, though he was weak, yet he sate at the table with them, and at Supper his discourse was upon the Question, Whether we shall know one another in Heaven? which he affirmed and proved, in that Adam knew Eve as soon as he saw her, that she was flesh of his flesh: and therefore much more shall we know one another in Heaven, &c. After Supper, he withdrew himself as he used, for private prayer; but the pain of his breast increased on him.

O my heavenly Father, though I am taken from this life, and though my body must now be laid down, yet I know certainly that I shall abide with thee for ever, and that none can take me out of thy hands.] Then he said [So God loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whoever believeth in him, should not perish, but have everlasting life] Then he repeated part of the 68. Psalm: and when he had drunk a medicine that was given him, he said [I go hence:
