was not the estate your own estate? and was not the price for which it was sold, all in your own hands? how came such a design as this in your heart? thou hast not lyed unto men, but unto God. at these words Ananias fell down dead upon the spot: which struck the minds of all that heard of it with great dread. and some young men came and wound him up, then carried him out, and buried him. about the space of three hours after, his wife, not knowing what had happen'd, came in. when Peter addressing himself to her, tell me, said he, have you sold the land for such a price? yes, said she, for so much.
