We read in the book of Martyrs, of two Martyrs that were to be burnt at Stratford Bow near London, one Hugh Laborocke, and John Price, the one blind, and the other lame, this Price being full of fear when the fire was about him, saith Hugh unto him, Be not troubled, though thou blind and I lame, yet remember death will heal thee of thy Blindness and me of my Lameness. Suppose thou art blind, lame and maimed, why Christs receiving of thy body will cure all, and truly there were no comfort to a man under a bodily distemper, when a man is under some great trouble, when a man should think that this body of mine should rot in the Grave, and never be raised from the dead, which were very uncomfortable.
