was particularly exhorted to reflect on the soul, the monstrous Crime he had been guilty of, the Murder of his own Master! A Gentleman whose Bread he daily received, whose Bounty and Indulgence he had often experienced, and whose good Offices he was ever sure of; and, after all, the Requital he made, was to take away that Life, which 'twas impossible for him again to restore: In Robbery there may be some Reparation, but in Murder there can be none; the Loss of Life stagnates all; 'tis the greatest Crime Man can commit; Barbarity to the last Degree, and calls aloud for Vengeance, for Whoso sheddeth Man's Blood, by Man shall his Blood be shed. 'Twas represented to him, how little Expectation such a Man had for Mercy, who would give none; but, as nothing was impossible with God, he was desired to cry out with holy David, Deliver me from Blood Guiltiness, Oh God! thou God of my Salvation, and my Tongue shall sing aloud of thy Righteousness, Psalm 51. 14.
