Coke's Commentary on the Holy Bible

Luke 8:24

Master, Master, we perish!— How concise, how abrupt, and how ardent is this exclamation! therefore how strongly significant of imminent danger,and of the utmost distress! they have not time to be explicit; a moment's delay may be fatal. What they utter is conciseness itself, and all rapidity.—This is nature; this is the general language of the heart.
