O, that 1 were with Him P My sick I child comforted me thus many times, I and I ran never forget her wonts. I Truly lier death was life to me. When 1 saw her willingness and readiness to die, and Iter benntifal and happy looks when the minister j KjmUe to her of dying, it was more than I could liear. 1 rereemborod that when 1 was of her age the vary thought of dying mude tne mlnrmhle, and I could not nuilcrstand wlmt it was that made my child so different from myself, and why she even longed to die. Now I know. Now l understand, that the i/oril was her soul’s and beast's comfort and strength, and I do not wonder. She was the cause of the change that 1 experienced.

Poratjk I do not fear. Kirhes I do not sigh far. Death I do not shrink from, aud lifo I do uot desire, save only for the progress of your souls. But you know, my friends, the true cause of my falL. It is that I have not flattered the effeminacy and sensuality of certain men, nor laid gold and silver at their foe*. But why need I say morel Jezebel is raising her pcrseouUoo, and Elias must fly. Ilerodius is taking her pleasure, aud John must be twxuid iu chains; the Egyptian wife tells her tie, and Joseph must be thrust into prison. And so, if they tianish me Fshall be like Elias; if they throw me into the mire, like Jeremiah; if they plunge me into tlie sea, like the prophet Jonah; if into the pit, like Uaaiei; if they stone me, it is Stephen that I shall resemble f John tlie forerunner, if tliey cut off my head ; rani, if they beat me with stnpro; Isaiah, if they saw me asunder.
