Circumstances, such as no body had perciev'd on her
with with a Chearful & Thankful Heart, being
bowed with Shame before him with whom she
had spent many happy Moments, days & years.
About the 15th it being Two years since
we came in our Choir House she told Sister Mary
Ev'rything how she had been & was in Tyre-
sell-Hall at that time, What Anxiety &
Concern she felt about coming in the Choir House
fearing Least she should not have leave to
come & how she had in Stillness Pray'd & wept
before her dear Lamb, that he would give
her Leave to come & that if she should have
that favour that he would grant her the feel
-ing & nearness of his Wounds that she might
be faithful to him therein &c. Nay 'tis almost
incredible, how quick & active her Memory
was over this Matter she not only gave Sisr
Mary an account of herself but of all the
Sisters in Tyre-sell-Hall at that time, she
(unperceiv'd) had taken Notice of ev'ry One,
conduct words & behaviour, But to return
she also Express'd herself in a very Lively
manner with grace & Understanding how
Exceedingly she was Rejoiced when she was

Situation at Present and time Past & when
Sister Mary came to her then she would tell
her all her Mind about them, & Especialy the
concern she had had, about her Class under
some heavy Circumstances some Months agoe
& being ask'd why she did not speak at such
time what she had in her mind? She answer'd

& too insignificant to Speak Her mind about
any thing, But she had instead of that gone
somewhere in a Corner & Wept for them be-

would Bless Preserve & keep them & Her
& that they might all become a joy to Him.
Once in Sister Mary's Presence after having
fully spoken & Open'd all her Mind to her a-
-bout Many things, she took Notice that her
Aunt (who faithfuly tended & Nurs'd
her all the time of Sickness) was a Cry-

she wept, telling her she had no Occassion
to weep for her since "says she" I am fully
satisfied & Reconciled both with My Lamb &
& with all my Sisters & have Spoke my mind
about Every thing, & Now am Ready to go
whenever he Pleases,,
Thus she Continued under a Deep Sense
& Speaking of herself & her Choir & Often
