1. You must know that it is one thing to die stupidly, and another thing to die hopefully and peaceably: indeed, the worst men in the world, may die stupidly, their consciences may not do its office when they die: they may have their consciences feared as it were with a hot iron, and think they are going to heaven, and never think otherwise till they drop down into hell; but now the godly, they die full of peace and comfort, as in Psal. 37. 37. Mark the upright man, and behold the 1just, for the end of that man is peace; but there is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked, Isaiah. 257. 41. There may be a fearednesse of conscience, and stupidity of heart, but they cannot die peaceably and in hope.
