35 women recovered their children, tho' dead, by their being raised to life again: some expired under torments, refusing to be delivered; that they might obtain a better deliverance at the resurrection. 36 others suffer'd cruel indignities and scourgings, besides chains and imprisonment. 37 they were stoned, they were sawn asunder, were tempted, were slain with the sword: they wandred about in sheepskins, and goat-skins, being destitute, afflicted, tormented: 38 (of whom the world was not worthy) they wandred in desarts, and in mountains, having no retreat but the dens and caves of the earth.
