 * 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 friend; 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."
