"but it will not be long-- soon we shall be united
"again, never, never, to be parted. you must finish
"your work; & then you will come after me, & we shall
" be united forever. I know you will care for our dear

This seemed to satisfy her, foron being asked,
whether a prayer should be made for her release
she said: "No! no! the Lords time is best, I can
wait patiently for that"--- 'Yes' said she- though
I walk through the <placename>valley of the shadow of death,</placename> I fear
