I know that a stranger's hand will write to me next, to say that the good and faithful servant has been called at length into the joy of his Lord. And why weep for this? No fear of death will darken St. John's last hour: his mind will be unclouded; his heart will be undaunted; his hope will be sure; his faith steadfast. His own words are a pledge of this: My Master, he says, has forewarned me. Daily he announces more distinctly, Surely I come quickly! and hourly I more eagerly respond, Amen; even so come, Lord Jesus!
