CHAP. IX.
Wherefore, let us yield obedience to His excellent and glorious
will; and imploring His mercy and lovingkindness, while we forsake
all fruitless labours,40 and strife, and envy, which leads to death, let
us turn and have recourse to His compassions. Let us steadfastly con-
template those who have perfectly ministered to His excellent glory.
Let us take (for instance) Enoch, who, being found righteous in obe-
dience, was translated, and death was never known to happen to
him.41 Noah, being found faithful, preached regeneration to the
world through his ministry; and the Lord saved by him the animals
which, with one accord, entered into the ark.
