Conclusion.
Return unto thy rest, O my soul, for the Lord hath been beneficial unto thee: 1O the incomprehensible love and favours of the Lord! Was it ever found that any King or Potentate should adopt the blind, the lame, the deaf, the dumb, to succeed him in his Inheritance? and shall such a one as I (the vilest, the worst of sinners) inherit everlasting life, a crown that never withereth, a durable treasure, which can never fade: O what shall I give unto the Lord for this Eternity? My soul, rejoice thou in the Lord, and bless his holy name: Now begin that Alleluia on earth, which in Heaven thou shalt sing more sweetly to all Eternity, Alleluia! and again Alleluia! Amen, Alleluia!

Was it ever found that any King or Potentate should adopt the blinde, the lame, the deaf, the dumb, to succeed him in his Inheritance? and shall such a one as I (the vilest, the worst of sinners) inherit everlasting life, a crown that never withereth, a durable treasure, which can never fade: O what shall I give unto the Lord for this Eternity? My soul, rejoyce thou in the Lord, and bless his holy name: Now begin that Alleluiah on earth, which in Heaven thou shalt sing more sweetly to all Eternity, Alleluiah! and again Alleluiah! Amen, Alleluiah!
