To die for every tenet that serveth the ambition, or profit of the Clergy, is not required; nor is it the Death of the Witnesse, but the Testimony it self that makes the Martyr: for the word signifieth nothing else, but the man that beareth Witnesse, whether he be put to death for his testimony, or not.
Noah signifieth rest; his name was therefore according to his work, for he was a preacher of righteousness, which giveth rest to all that embraceth it. Besides, it was he that prepared the ark, the place of rest to the church of God. "This same shall comfort us concerning our work and toil of our hands, because of the ground which the Lord hath cursed."
I know well enough that, in reading this, you laugh at the old drinker, and hold this exposition of colours to be very extravagant, and utterly disagreeable to reason, because white is said to signify faith, and blue constancy.

And where our Saviour saith himself, "It is more easy for a camel" or, as some say, "for a great cable rope," for "camelus" so signifieth in the Greek tongue "to go through a needle's eye than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God." No marvel, now, if good folk who fear God take occasion of great dread at so dreadful words, when they see the worldly goods fall to them.

Which that I may do to your edification, I shall First shew you what this word reprobation signifieth in the general, as it concerneth persons temporary and visibly reprobate: Second, more particularly, as it concerneth persons that are eternally and invisibly reprobate.
This is a great expression, and carrrieth with it much. 'Uttermost' signifieth to the outside, to the end, to the last, to the furthest part. And it hath respect both to persons and things.
