"indeed lived almost for 22 years. But what
"have I been doing? Alas! I have done
"these things I ought not to have done.
I have been an <trait>unprofitable</trait> servant.
yet I feel my <persname>Saviour</persname> is both able and
willing to love to the uttermost all
who ask his forgiveness, and put their
trust in <persname>Him</persname>. Oh! gracious permission,
the <persname>Lord</persname> that's in heaven, permit his poor crea -
tures <persname>Him Father</persname> to call! I have today par -
taken with this congregation of the body and
blood of my ever blessed <persname>Saviour</persname>- What a favour
bestowed on us so <trait>unworthy</trait> of such a feast, and
so inattentive to the voice of the <persname>Holy Spirit</persname>.
Help me ever <trait>merciful</trait> <persname>Savior</persname> to be more
attentive in future to all thy invitations and
ordinances, more forgiving to my neighbours,
not easily offended. Teach me to bear and forbear
and above all, to be more and more thankful
for thy atonement, thy <trait>long</trait> suffering and tender
mercies. Teach me to know myself. Let me
feel more humble. Yea, <persname>Lord</persname>, teach me now
what to pray for. I can do nothing without thee,
"Now, then, the sequel is well weighed to"
