the holy Ghost. She was now the dearest child, a Object of
Joy, She became the most tender Lover, & like a Worm
for our Sav. confedent, playing, & loving with every Body
When she sometimes spoke of our Savr. her Expressions were very
naif, suitable by according to all Experience of a Adult,
& so tender, that it clearly showed what a lovely & amazing
enjoyment She had in the Conversation with our dear Savr
She sometimes kept Singing for herself in a Corner of the
Room., that her Sisters very often sat astonishing to
hear her sing (mostly away from herself) 1/2 a hour, often
1 whole hour, the tenderest & most extraordinary
versis in a admirable Conexion suiting the Matter
she was about extraordinary well. and when it happened that
She could be observed nearly they could see the tender
Tears rolling down her Checks for Love to our Saviour.
Her Sickness was a ulceration in her Head, & the smart
encreasing more & more, but by that, her desire to be
with our Saviour & the Hope soon to see him was beyond
Belief. If by her intollerable Pain & little impatience
would arrise then she toock it so high amiss to herself
& beggd her Sisters so complaining & humble for forgiveness
about her being so intollerable, that they had enough to do
only to comfort her. She was to extremely thanckfull
to her Waiters. Who it was & came near her Bed must
be embrass'd & rissd in the tenderest Manner. Her
most frequent vers in her latter Days was: Ich hatt dich
magen herzen Her languishing for her rest encreased
dayly, especially on her Birthday, the 27th of May
Indeed was it this Day very plausible & the sisters prepared for her
disolution
Disolution & She herself gave our Saviour 100 good words
to hasten & take her home. But her blessd Moment
came on no sooner then the 29th hyas at two a Clock.
As a Sister whispered in the Ear of another, saying: Now
it will be soon out. She recovered again & said with a cheafull
voice: What a Joy will that be! And in a little While they
said: now it is Time, meaning to bless her. She lookd
at the Sister with a tender Smile & bowed with her Head,
& so in this Moment grew pale in Jesu lovely Arms.
In her tender age of 8 years & one day,

The following are her own Words, which she left in writing
behind her
I am born 1683 the 29th of Sept at Runewalde in Moravia.
My Vater Dav Shindler & my moyher have been concerd
about their Salvation, & so they did whatever they could to
bring me up in a religious Way. In the 8th year
of my Age, I feeld the first Labour of Grace in my Heart,
but afterwards went to divert myself with the World, not
without restlessness & disatisfaction in my Heart.
In my 22d year of Age I marryed & intended to carry
on with my Husband a pious life. I indeed begun to be confident
towards my Redeemer, who very gratiously vouchsaved
towards us. We soon get intelligence of the great Awakening
in Feshen, but as our Daughter made a Visit there, she
was betrayed
