9. In case of death, §9there is a psalm revives, though I walk in the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil. Psalm. 23.4. The sting, and poison of this serpent is taken away. Thou art with me; with thy power to support, with thy grace to sanctify, with thy love to sweeten. ⟨p. 286⟩Thy Rod and thy staff do comfort me. I have the staff of thy promise in the hand of my faith, and with this I can walk through the dark entry of death.
