1 Corinthians2:9

Verſe 9. Eye hath not ſeen, &c.] It is reported of one Adrianus, that ſeeing the Martyrs ſuffer ſuch grievous things, he asked the cauſe, one of them anſwered, Eye hath not ſeen, nor ear heard, neither have entred into the heart of man, the things that God hath prepared for them that love him. The naming of which Text ſo wrought upon him, that afterward he became a Martyr.

The things which God hath prepared] As he prepared Paradiſe for Adam; ſo heaven for all his. Yet he reſerves not all for the life to come, but gives a few grapes of Canaan in this wilderneſſe.
