Fear not, ye souls of the righteous; but wait with patient hope for the day of your death in righteousness.

For behold they are dead; and never will they again perceive the light.” I say unto you, ye sinners, You have been satiated with meat and drink, with human plunder and rapine, with sin, with the acquisition of wealth and with the sight of good days.
