THat all the World may know, that I am a most bountiful rewarder of such, as whē the greatest afflictions and tentations are vppon them, beare them not∣withstanding patiently, holde out without fainting in the combate, & trust in me, and as well in the storme as when it is ouer, pray for their enimies, as thou Iob hast done: I wil free thee from the captiuity of Sathan to whose tyranny I deliuer•• ••••••••ee ouer for a time, & enuiron thee round with the sence of my Angels, as in times past, remoue away thy disease and restore thee to health of body, make thy Wife and seruants to humble themselues vnto thee, thy Kinsfolk and acquaintance to repaire vnto thee with great giftes in their hands, those yt cōtemned thee to sue vnto thee for for∣giuenes. I wil also blesse theea more aboū dantly then in thy former prosperity, with al maner of riches, the number of thy sheep, Camels, Oxen, Asses, shal be doubled vnto thee, Sons and Daughters more vert••ous andb comely then the former; longer,c and more happy daies shall bee be stowed vpon thee, and at length which is a thing far more blessed and desired of mine elect, because of that which followeth, then all aboue mentioned, a timely, peaceable, and honora∣ble funerall. Heereby to let thee with the rest of my Chil∣dren see, and vnderstand, how beneficiall I am in my tem∣porall fauours when is shall be good for them: but specially how infinite are the heauenly treasures which I haue reser∣ued in my euerlasting kingdome of glory for such as in the time of tentation, tryall, and aduerfity, beare contentedly my visitation, and constantly cleaue vnto me.
