Had Reprobate men and Angels had the drawing up of the Report of the Saints lives, 1what a black Bill of Indictment would they have preferred against them? to be sure, all the evil which they ever did in their whole lives, with all their blackest aggravations, should have been raked up, and produced against them. Yea, if the Saints themselves had been trusted with giving in the story of their own lives, they would not have dealt much more kindly by themselves, than the Seed of the Serpent would have done; to be sure, if there were any thing worse than other, they would not have concealed it; vilifying the good, and aggravating the bad, (as sometimes they were wont to do in their desertions, even beyond truth and justice,) as if Satan had hired them to belly themselves: I but now the Righteous Judg of Heaven and Earth, He is far from dealing so with them: but, as if he himself had never known any evil by them; he brings in Omnia bene in his presentment, all fair and well, and so it is proclaimed in that High Court of Justice.
