all our Desire_[d]; and then it is but a little while, and all our
Complaints will cease. _GOD will wipe away these Tears from our
Eyes_[e], our peaceful and happy Spirits shall ere long meet with
those of our Children which he hath taken to himself. Our Bodies shall
sleep, and ere long also awake, and arise with theirs. _Death_, that
inexorable Destroyer, _shall be swallowed up in Victory_[f], while we
and ours surround the Throne with everlasting Hallelujahs, and own,
with another Evidence than we can now perceive; with another Spirit
than we can now express, that _All was indeed well_. Amen.
