That the Saints in suffering the first death for the truth are quit from the second. CHAP. 8.

FOr if wee marke well, in dying well and laudably for the truth, is a (worse) death •…•…oyded, and therefore wee take part of it, least the whole should fall vpon 〈◊〉〈◊〉 and a second, that should neuer haue end. Wee vndertake the sepe∣ration of the body from the soule, least wee should come to haue the soule se∣uered from God and then from the body: and so mans first death beeing past,

the second, that endlesse one, should fall presently vpon him. Wherefore the d•…•…th as I say that wee suffer (a) when wee die, and causeth vs dye, is good vnto * 1.1 〈◊〉〈◊〉 〈◊〉〈◊〉, but it is well tolerated, for attaining of good. But when men once are in death, and called dead, then we may say that it is good to the good, and bad to the bad. For the good soules, being seuered from their bodies, are in rest & the euill in torment, vntill the bodies of the first rise to life eternall, and the later vnto the eternall, or second death.

〈◊〉〈◊〉 •…•…amus quanquam media iam morte tenetur,

〈◊〉〈◊〉 〈◊〉〈◊〉 lies now in midst of death.—that is a dying: and the

〈◊〉〈◊〉 Morte Neoptolemi regnorum reddita cessit.—pars Heleno.

〈◊〉〈◊〉 Pyrhus death got Helenus, that part that now he holds.—that is, after his death.
