LORD Psal 119.103 how sweet are thy words to my taste yea sweeter than honey to my mouth When the Chaplain was come in she said to him ' Come Sir Heb. 4.16 Let us go boldly unto the Throne of Grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need Whereupon he answering Why don't you say Let us go and implore for Mercy rather than say as with confidence you do Let us go that we may obtain mercy She reply'd Sir it is because I find a Redeemer there 1 Cor. 6.20 Joh. 6.37 who has bought me with a price and said Him that comes to me I will in no wise cast out ' and I am perswaded 1 Joh. 1.9 He is faithful and just to keep his promise Aye Madam answered the Chaplain this Promise he has made to your Contrition Repentance and Faith. DURING this whole day which was Wednesday she spake many other admirable things that could not all of them be remember'd One would have thought by seeing her that her Soul was set loose from the Body She had quite forgot the Earth and all Ties and Relations here her onely thoughts being now to unite her self with her God by Meditation till she might be more perfectly united to him in Heaven ABOUT Evening she felt a great drought in her Throat and was very thirsty yet they durst not give her any thing by reason her Stomach could not bear so much as one drop of fair Water without bringing of it up and that with a vehement Cough accompani'd with a stoppage and shortness of breath they therefore onely call'd for an Epitheme to allay her great palpitation of heart But she little regarding the Relief they were willing to give her Body cry'd out on a sudden LORD JESUS thou my Heavenly Physician apply the Merits of thy precious Bloud to me for that alone can infallibly heal my Soul. IMMEDIATELY after this she fell into most cruel Agonies which made her take very little rest all that night But yet she continu'd to comfort her self in God seeking no-where else but in his Word for a Remedy to all her griefs And in these circumstances she often cry'd 1 Sam. 3.10 Speak O Lord for thy servant hears Speak thou O my God to the Soul of thy poor Hand-maid WHICH having said she asked a Gentleman that was opening the Windows of her Chamber what time of the day it was he answer'd It was almost day-light adding Madam why do you ask me this Question have you a mind to do as David did and rise by break of day to praise God No Sir reply'd she I can't do that but I will continually bless and magnifie him upon this my Bed of Languishing Early my God before 't is light Psal 63. Woodf And all the Stars are up but that which makes the day Whilst Heav'n alone with flames is bright And all below is hurl'd in sable veil of night Which they can neither draw nor take away Early I 'll worship and one glance from thee E're 't is with others day shall make it noon with me And as this dry and thirsty Land Where the ground ready to expire for want of Rain Gaping and out of breath does stand And shews its very bowels shrivled like its sand And having drunk gapes for more drink again The Wilderness and I in this agree For as that thirsts for Rain so Lord I thirst for thee I thirst thy glorious Power to see As I have seen it in thy Temple heretofore When ravish'd with thy love to me To die I was content could I but so love thee And so to die this Life would chuse no more Those thoughts so high my fainting Spirit do raise That through my lips they force their voice in Songs of praise For this Pll bless thee and on high To thy Great Name send up my praises whilst I live For since at present I enjoy A mind content it shall prepare for more supply Though thou at present onely that dost give E'en that shall bring my famish'd Soul more good Than what my body had from most delicious food Marrow and fatness it shall be And all the solid meats which please and feed the strong For I shall come at last to thee Who art the blessed End of all felicity And the best subject of my humble Song And on my Bed when I revolve thy might My Praises shall instead of Watches part the night ABOUT four of the Clock her Illness so increas'd upon her that she felt most intolerable pains which was perceiv'd both by the sharp Shreeks and lamentable Cries she from time to time put forth and by the violent Convulsion-sits she suffer'd that distorted her Arms and bent her Body double But for all this her mind was still the same and lost nothing of its strength and freedom IN one of these Fits she did cry to God Lord have mercy on me Mat. 26.39 Let this Cup pass from me Nevertheless not as I will but as thou wilt In another Fit which one would have thought would have thrown her out of her Bed so vehemently it toss'd her Body she cry'd out Thunder lightning bruise break to pieces and do what thou wilt with this poor Body yet will I still love thee O my God!
