I go the way, &c. — Even the sons and heirs of heaven, must go the way of all the earth, of all who dwell thereon. But they walk with pleasure in this way, thro' the valley of the shadow of death. Prophets, yea kings must go this way to brighter light and honour than prophecy or sovereignty. Be strong — For, to govern his people according to the law of God, requires great fortitude, or strength of mind. And a man — In manly wisdom, and courage, and constancy, though thou art but young in years.
