This sort of Incompleteness hath befallen the Works of this worthy Author, in respect to the finishing of this Prophecy, which he intended, and had performed; wherein yet to the Church of God, there shall be no loss, there being no thoughts nor Notions suggested to any man, which though for the present they die with him. But the same Spirit that is the inspirer of ⟨image 3⟩all, doth bring to light in some one or other servant of God, in his own time.

What a Treasury of Thoughts seemed to be lost, and to die with the Saviour of the World, which he had not, could not then utter; which yet the Spirit that filled him without measure, distributed amongst the Apostles that came after him, according to the measure of the gift of Christ in each. There is no beam of Divine Light hath shone into any mans heart that shall finally, and for ever be put under a Bushel; but in the end shall be set up, to give light to the whole House.
