prove the means of her dissolution, to which
she was Resign'd & said that she might go
Home to her dear Saviour, she was however
willing to use any means which were
recommended, to her, but all was without
Effect, at last she was obliged to take to
her Bed, which she has kept above 3 months
and endured often much pain, having
lost the use of most of her Limbs, her
prayer to our Saviour was Constantly
that He might give her patience to hold
out till he Should think fit to release her,
