Letter XIV

Lambeth, July 13, 1765

My dear Friend: — I could not answer your kind letter till this day; my cause has been to be heard from day to day before my Lord Chancellor, but put off, and yesterday was put off to the next term: so that I have, through the good will of my God, an opportunity of seeing you once more, and to talk together by the way of our ever lovely, infinitely precious Jesus, who has so won my heart, that I have no relish (like one in love) to talk of anything but my Beloved. Tuesday morning

I purpose to set out, and hope to be at

about noon Wednesday next, where I shall be glad to meet (at the old house) some of my dear fellow travelers from. Oh, that our meeting may be to Jesus’ glory! I am, in the best of bonds of Jesus’ own tying, yours, W. R.
