For though death in Paradise was enjoined unto man for a penalty of sin; yet through the grace of God, in the merits of Christ, it is become unhurtful; yea, a medicine to purge out sin, and a very workhouse, wherein we are made ready to everlasting righteousness.
Miles Coverdale — Remains of Myles Coverdale, Bishop of Exeter (Parker Society; Cambridge: University Press, 1846), Treatise on Death (First Book), passage on death reframed by Christ’s merits
