Luke 12:4-5 And I say to you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.… One of the martyrs, when being led to the stake, was urged to recant; and as a motive to induce him to do so it was said, "Life is sweet, and death is bitter." "True," said the good man; "life is sweet, and death is bitter; but eternal life is sweeter, and eternal death is more bitter."
