 goodneſs for raiſing me to life, after I was ſo ſuddenly ſnatched away from my dear раrents who otherwiſe might have grieved without meaſure for my haſty departure leſt ſuppoſing, not without reaſon, that I was not prepared for ſo ſudden a change. Comfort, O Lord the ſorrowful ſtate of my parents, who are loſing the only joy of their lives; give them heavenly patience under their earthly trial, that they may be made worthy inhabitants of theſe ever glorious manſions to which I am now going. Laſtly, Bleſs this wicked nation, and give them a true ſenſe of their wickedneſs to repent of their ſins in order to receive thoſe mercies thou haſt ordained for them, and eſcape thoſe dreadful judgements which they deſerve. This I beg for the ſake of Jeſus Chriſt, to whom with Thee and the Holy Ghoſt, be all honour and praiſe, might, and dominion, from this time forth and for evermore. Amen.

Thus, lived and died the wonder of a woman and the glory of her age. There was a funeral ſermon preached on this occaſion, by the Reverend Mr. Dalton, which is now in the preſs and ſpeedily will be publiſhed.
