* 1.1To conclude, what cause have all the Saints to love their dear Lord Jesus with an abounding love. Christian, open the eyes of thy faith, and fix them upon Christ, in the posture he lay in the gar∣den, drencht in his own blood: and see whether he be not lovely in these his dyed garments. He that suffered for us more than any creature could or did, may well challenge more love than all the creatures in the world. O what hath he suffered, and suffered up∣on thy account! it was thy pride, earthliness, sensuality, unbelief, hardness of heart that laid on more weight in that day that he sweat blood.
