Now For My Own Case, I Bless The Lord That, For All That Hath Been Said Of Me, My Conscience Doth Not Condemn Me. I Do Not Say I Am Free Of Sin, But I Am At Peace With God Through A Slain Mediator; And I Believe That There Is No Salvation But Only In Christ.

It Is Long Since I Could Have Adventured On Eternity, Through God's Mercy And Christ's Merits; But Death Remained Somewhat Terrible, And That Now Is Taken Away; And Now Death Is No More To Me, But To Cast Myself Into My Husband's Arms, And To Lie Down With Him.

I Cannot But Be Grieved To Go From My Native Land, And Especially From That Part Of It For Whom And With Whom I Desired Only To Live; Yet The Dreadful Apprehensions I Have Of What Is Coming Upon This Land May Help To Make Me Submissive To This Providence, Though More Bitter.

Go On, Then, And Let Your Intent Be Seriousness.

And Now, This Is The Sweetest And Most Glorious Day That Ever My Eyes Did See.
