I dare say, quoth I, I am glad on it; I am glad for the poor man’s sake, for that he now has rest from his labour; 579 and for that he now reapeth the benefit of his tears with joy; 580 and for that he has got beyond the gunshot of his enemies, and is out of the reach of them that hate him. I also am glad, for that a rumour of these things is noised abroad in this country; who can tell but that it may work some good effect on some that are left behind? But, pray Sir, while it is fresh in my mind, do you hear anything of his wife and children? Poor hearts! I wonder in my mind what they do. 581
