Let it be consider'd farther, That as to good Persons who are thus taken away, tho' it be a Loss to the World, a great Loss to the Family, or to the Church, yet they are taken away from the Evil to come, and are removed to a better Place: God hath dealt well with them, tho' he corrects us in taking them away. Isa. lvii. 1, 2. The Day of Death is to them better than the Day of their Birth: They are gone to rest; to rest in the Bosom of Christ. It is what departed Saints did long wish and pray for, that they might be prepared for that happy State, and they rejoiced in the Hope of that Glory to which they are now taken. Blessed are the Dead, which die in the Lord; for they rest from their Labours, and their Works do follow them, Rev. xiv. 13.
