You have it in your English, only so (To Live, and to Die:) But those that understand the Original, know, that besides the Word that signifies To Live: There's an Article in the Greek, [Greek or Hebrew] And besides that word, there's an Article [Greek or Hebrew]. So that if you would have it Translated according to the Propriety and Elegance of the Greek, it is thus: To me the thing that is to Live is Christ, and the thing that is Death is Gain. As if he should say, That thing that you call Life, is nothing but Christ: If Christ may be Magnified in me, if I may be of any Service for Him any way, then I am content to Live; but if so be that He may be no more Served by me here, let me Die, and I shall lose nothing by that neither: For that same thing you call Death, the thing that People keep such a stir about, and are so scared withal, That to Die; it's nothing to me, but that which will be Gain. So that the words, they speak out the frame of Gracious Heart, blessing it self in Jesus Christ, both in Life and Death: To me to Live: I'll not make any curious Definition, nor raise more Points than I shall go through at this time, ⟨p. 106⟩and the Points will be nothing but the opening of the Text in both Parts.
