Consequently he declareth yet more fully by numbering of the calamities, that the saints in an other life shall be delivered at ones from all evil: and death shall be no more. For they shall be rewarded with life everlasting. Therefore shall there be no more fear of death, which is in a manner more bitter than death it self. The same affirmeth the Apostle in the first to the Corinth. the .15. alleging the testimony of the Prophet Hosea. There shall be no mourning nor sorrow, which drieth up the bones, although most full of juice. For the joy of Saints shall be perpetual. There shall be no clamour, no complaint, no expostulating or upbraiding. For why, there shall be no injury, no malice or envy. This world soundeth and redoundeth full of the clamorous and cries of poor wretches. But in the blessed seats shall be no misery. There shall be no pain ([Greek or Hebrew]) labour, sickness, weariness. The cause hereof, for the old things are gone. There is now an other life, yea and that a most diverse manner of ⟨p. 635⟩living, from that which we live now.

Therefore in the world to come we shall think of no carnal nor corrupt thing, but an heavenly.
Consequently he declareth yet more fully by nombryng of the calamities, that the sainctes in an other life shall be deliuered at ones from al euill: and death shal be no more. For they shal be rewarded with life euerlastyng. Therefore shall there be no more feare of death, whiche is in a maner more bitter than death it selfe. The same affirmeth the Apostle in the first to the Corinth. the .15. alledgyng the testimony of the Prophete Osee. There shall be no mournyng nor sorrowe, whiche drieth vp the bones, although most ful of iuyce. For the ioye of Sainctes shal be perpetuall. There shal be no clamour, no complayncte, no expostulatyng or vmbraydyng. For whie, there shall be no iniurie, no mallice or enuie. This worlde sowndeth and redoundeth full of the clamorous and cries of poore wretches. But in the blessed seates shal be no miserie. There shal be no payne () labour, sickenes, werines. The cause hereof, for the olde thinges are gone. There is nowe an other life, yea and that a moste diuerse maner of
