18 In the Gifts of our Ascended Lord for His Church, He does but Spargers Missilia, and scatter Medals •••e Princes at their Coronation, or in their Triumphal ⟨p. 170⟩Entries. The well-qualified Ministers and Publishers of the Gospel, are the Medals which our Triumphing Saviour does cast about, that His Church may seize upon them. Yea, But the Medals have on them the Image of the Princes who disperse them. O Preachers of the Gospel, How much ought you to be affected with this Consideration? There is nothing of so much Consequence unto you, as to have the Image of your SAVIOUR very Conspicuous on you.

20 The Original may be rendered, The Goings forth of Death: All the several Ways of Dying, which are found by the Children of Men are appointed & ordered by God. The LXX render it, The Passages of Death. All the several and secret Avenues whereby Death invades Mankind, God is the Uncontrollable Disposer of them. After all, in the Goings from Death here mentioned, why should not the Resurrection from the Dead be referred unto?
