Since ye bear true and faithful witness, and bear not false witness, add nothing to the truth, lest God add to you all the plagues of the law; diminish nothing from it, lest God scrape out your name our of the book of life; but seeing ye are witnesses of God, study to be faithful, be not ashamed or afraid to give a good witness as Christ did under Pontius Pilate, that he may give you at the great day a testimony of thy great fidelity, and say, Come, faithful servants.
—From a sermon given by Archibald Simpson as a funeral sermon to his brother Patrick preached in private, because he was prohibited from publicly exercising his ministry. [Spelling modernized and updated]

I hope to add the full text of this funeral sermon, over the next short season, Lord Willing.
