[ XL] Not to be affraid of Afflictions, because God sends them.

HOw sick soever a man be with Physick,* 1.1 he is not affraid of dying, because he considers, the Physitian in wisdome gave him, what now occasioneth his pre∣sent sicknesse and distemper. No more should we be dismaied at the bitternesse of our cup,* 1.2 if (with Christ) we did but take notice: It is the Cup that our heavenly Father hath mingled, and hath given us onely for our correction, not confusion.
