If I (said one) should live a thousand years, and every day die a thousand times the same death for Christ, that he once died for me, yet all this would be nothing to the sorrows Christ endured in his death.1 At this time the Bridegroom Christ might have borrowed the word of his Spouse the Church, Lam. 1.12. Is it nothing to you, all ye that pass by? See, and behold, if there be any sorrow, like unto my sorrow which is done unto me; wherewith the Lord hath afflicted me, in the day of his fierce anger.
