22. One speaking, concerning the Resurrection of the Body, he ⟨p. 25⟩did acknowledge it; but that the same weak body that was buried in the Church-yard, should be raised again, he thought very strange, but with Admiration yielded, that nothing was impossible to God; and that very day he was taken sick unto death.

23. A Friend of his asked him whether he were willing to dye when he was first taken sick; he answered, no; because he was afraid of his state as to another world: Why Child, said the other, thou didst pray for a new Heart, for an humble, and a sincere Heart, and I have heard thee; didst thou not pray with all thy heart? I hope I did, said he.
24. Not long after, the same person asked him again, whether he were willing to die? He answered, now I am willing, for I shall go to Christ.
