Especially, since therefore Jesus died, and was buried, that he might sanctify death to us by his death, and by his being buried, might perfume the Grave, and make it a sweet Dormitory, or bed of spices for his members to rest in, until the Morning of the Resurrection.

Oh Christians, Let us comfort our selves, and one another with these words also, Jesus dyed.
The fourth word is yet more Cordial, 1and that is, although Jesus dyed, yet He rose again. He died indeed, but he rose again from the dead. God suffered his dear Son to be laid in the Sepulchre, but he did not leave him there, nor suffer any taint of Corruption to seize upon his precious Body. And to that end, Christ made hast to rise again out of the Grave, he rose the third day, and that very early in the Morning (saith the Text) as soon, as ever it could be called day: The Alarm no sooner went off (as it were) but the Lord Jesus did lift up his Royal head, and put on his Glorious Apparel, and came forth out of his Grave, as a Bridegroom out of his Chamber, in State and Triumph.
- 1A fourth word of Comfort.
