John Trapp on Jeremiah 26:14

Ver. 14. As for me, behold I am in your hand] See here how God gave his holy Prophet a mouth and wiſedome, ſuch as his adverſaries were not able to reſiſt. The like he did to other of his Martyrs and Confeſſours, as were eaſie to inſtance. If the Queen will give me life, I will thank her: if ſhe will baniſh me, I will thank her:Act. & Mon. 1462. if ſhe will burn me, I will thank her, &c. ſaid Bradford to Creſwel offering to intercede for him.

To do with me as ſeemeth good and meet unto you] But this I can ſafely ſay, Non omnis moriar: all that ye can do, is, to kill the body: kill me you may, but hurt me you cannot. Life in Gods diſpleaſure is worſe then death: Eutipid. in Aul de. I am not of their mind who ſay —[non-Latin text not transcribed]:

Better live baſely, then dye bravely. Fax[illegible: 1 letter]t Deus ut quilibet noſtrum epilogum habeat galeatum: God grant that whether our death be a burnt offering of Martyrdome, or a peace offering of a natural death, it may be a free-will-offering, a ſweet ſacrifice to the Lord.
