Think about this when your time comes to die. You will die more willingly when you realize: I am leaving a world where even my closest friends — the people I have suffered for, prayed for, and cared for — secretly hope I will die. They think they will be happier once I am gone. Why would anyone want to stay longer in such a place? Still, when you die, do not let this make you bitter toward them.
This therefore if thou shalt think of whensoever thou diest, thou shalt die the more willingly, when thou shalt think with thyself; I am now to depart from that world, wherein those that have been my nearest friends and acquaintances, they whom I have so much suffered for, so often prayed for, and for whom I have taken such care, even they would have me die, hoping that after my death they shall live happier, than they did before. What then should any man desire to continue here any longer? Nevertheless, whensoever thou diest, thou must not be less kind and loving unto them for it;
