1But all things here must be examined of us most diligently. For this place as it is most manifest, so is it full of most wholesome doctrines. First S. John seeth, and showeth us as it were pointing with his finger, the souls, & that of those that were slain, to wit the spiritual & immortal substances, which the body being lost and consumed do remain a live. The body may be killed, the soul can not be killed. Which our Saviour hath lively expressed in the .10. of Matth. In the 12. of Luke, he sayeth: be not afraid of them which slay the body, and after this have nothing that they can do more, &c. Therefore tyrants might well kill the bodies of Martyrs, they had no power over their souls. This place witnesseth manifestly, the souls of men not only to be immortal, but also living or watchful, not sleeping to remain & live in Heaven. For there be that think the souls departed from the body to sleep:2 which thing is most vain.
1But al thinges here must be examined of vs most diligētly. For this place as it is most manifeste, so is it ful of moste holesome doctrines. First S. Iohn seeth, and sheweth vs as it were poynting with his fingar, the soules, & that of those that were slaine, to wit the spiritual & immortal substaunces, which the body beyng lost and consumed do remaine a liue. The body may be killed, the soule can not be killed. Whiche our Sauiour hath liuely expressed in the .10. of Matth. In the 12. of Luke, he sayeth: be not affrayde of them which sleye the body, and after this haue nothing that they can do more, &c. Therfore tirānes might wel kil the bodies of Martirs, they had no power ouer their soules. This place witnesseth manifestly, the soules of men not only to be immortall, but also liuing or watcheful, not slepyng to remayne & liue in Heauē. For there be that thinke the soules departed from the body to slepe:2 which thing is most vayne.
