10. Luther dying in his Clymacterical Year, made this his last Prayer:

O Heavenly Father, my Gracious God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, thou God of all Consolation, I give thee hearty Thanks, that thou hast revealed unto me thy Son Jesus Christ, whom I believe, whom I profess, whom I love, whom I glorifie; whom the Pope and the wicked Rout do per∣secute and dishonour: I beseech thee, Lord Jesus Christ, receive my Soul. O my Heavenly Father, tho' I be taken out of this Life, and must lay down this frail Body, yet I certainly know, that I shall live with thee eternally, and that I cannot be taken out of thy hands. God so loved the World, &c.

Lord, I render up my Spirit into thy Hands, and come to thee—And again, Lord, into thy hands I commend my Spirit; Thou, O God of Truth, hast redeemed me. And so as one falling asleep, and without any bodily Pain as could be discerned, he departed this Life, Feb. 18. Anno Christi 1548. Clark's Marr. of Eccl. Hist. p. 143.
