Treasury of Scripture Knowledge
he died David at his death had every thing that his heart could wish: `he died in a good old age, full of days, riches, and honour;' having gained more renown than any crowned head ever did. `David,' says Dr. Delaney, `was a true believer, a zealous adorer of God, teacher of His law and worship, and inspirer of His praise; a glorious example, a perpetual and inexhaustible fountain of true piety; a consummate and unrivalled hero; a skilful and successful captain; a steady patriot; a wise ruler; a faithful, generous, and magnanimous fried; and what is yet rarer, a no less generous and magnanimous enemy; a true penitent, a divine musician, a sublime poet, and an inspired prophet. By birth a peasant, by merit a prince! In youth a hero, in manhood a monarch, and in age a saint.'
