The most of my time without entering upon
the Subject which I have before wanted to introduce
and intended should mainly ingross my Pen, at
this Time: My Design was to communitcate to
my [begin underline] pious [end underline] Sister some of the Agitations of my
breast upon a Question of the [begin underline] last importance
deeply [end underline] interesting to [begin underline] all [end underline] Mankind, especially to all
who sit under the Light of the Gospel, but is[begin underline] most inox-
cably [end underline] neglected by all who are under the [begin underline] strongest
Obligations [end underline] to their Duty, by [begin underline] such [end underline] are unremitted Suc-
cession of Favours, as I have recieved, from my hea-
venly Father, -- I want to ask my Sister, [begin underline] when it is a
Persons Duty, publickly to seal his Engagements
to the Lord? Here I want a Friend indeed;[end underline] Now I
[begin underline] long [end underline] to be in a Capacity to receive from your Lips
what it would cost too much time for you to im-
print with your Pen, [begin underline] This [end underline] is a Question that has
for [begin underline] Years closely engaged [end underline] my Mind, and is to this
Day unsettled; I know what Qualifications [begin underline] will [end underline] entitle
a Person to this exalted Priviledge; But the labou-
ring Point is, what are the Qualifications upon
which he [begin underline] may [end underline] approach the holy Table; It is
the most reasonable Duty of everyone, [begin underline] long
long [end underline] before I now can but the thou(???) of Christs
long before I now can, But the [begin underline] Atrocity [end underline] of Christs
[begin underline] Enemies [end underline] sitting there with his [begin underline] Children chills
every Vein [end underline] at thought of [begin underline] my Unworthyness; [end underline] O!
my Sister! (if possible speak [begin underline] intelligently [end underline] to my [begin underline] Stupid
-- Stupid [end underline] Soul! And when presenting your
Brother to our common Father, be particularly ^solicitous^
for the [begin underline] Illuminations [end underline] of his [begin underline] Spirits [end underline] for such
Degrees of [begin underline] Holiness & Sanctification, [end underline] that when you join
in the Comunion of Saints, you may there find

(turned sideways) [begin underline] your constant Friend [end underline]
