Job6:10

Verſe 10. Thou ſhould I [illegible: 1 word] have comfort, yea, I would harden my ſelf in ſorrow &c.] I would take hard on, and bea[illegible: 1 letter] what befalleth me as well as I could, by head and ſhoulders, had I but hopes of an end by death; as having this for my comfort;

I have not concealed the words of the Holy One.] I have boldly profeſſed the true Religion, Pſ. 40.10. & 116.10. & 119.43. not [illegible: 2 letters]ared to preach the truth ſincerely to others for Gods glory, and their good; however you may judge of me. I never rejected the word of God, but have highly honoured it; ſo that my deſire of death is not deſperate, as you may conceive, but an effect of good aſſurance that by death heaven advanceth forward that happy term, when all my miſeries ſhall end at once: and hence it is, that I am ſo greedy after the grave.
