Ver. 12. Arise] From off thy knees; the petitioner's posture. St James, they say, a had knees as hard as camels' knees, with continual kneeling: and Hilarion was found dead in his oratory with knees bent, eyes and hands lifted up. b Father Latimer, during his imprisonment, was so constant and instant in prayer, that ofttimes he was not able to rise without help. c
a Euseb.
b Jerome.
c Act. and Mon., fol. 1579.
