Dear Friend A. P. MY dear and true Love salutes thee desiring thy Well-fare I have at this time writ a few Lines unto thee which I hope may find thee in good Health Forasmuch as when thou wast with us the mighty Power of the Lord broke in amongst us and tendered our Hearts so also it hath continued with us unto this day which I desire may never depart from us I can really say The preserving Hand of the Lord is time after time witnessed to keep us and preserve us and his intent is to do our Souls good so that in him may be our Peace and Salvation for sometimes waiting upon him in his blessed Light for his appearance he doth so lovingly and fatherly appear that he overcometh our Souls so that we cannot but Praise and Glorifie him that so graciously should visit us in his Love as he said In the Day of my Power my People shall be a willing People And even at the writing of these Lines he hath broken my Heart before him O! how is the Lord found of them that seek after him How beautiful is he in his Arisings How doth he fill them that hunger and thirst after him Now are the dayes of Comfort come even now are the dayes of Rejoycing and being Glad in the Lord approaching unto our Souls for he that wounded us hath in some measure healed us he that made our Hearts sad hath now caused us to rejoyce in him the Creator of Heaven and Earth for who were we or our Fathers Houses that the Lord should have respect unto us but in his Mercy hath he done it therefore it is my Desire that we may all be faithful unto the Lord in that he hath committed unto us so shall we have more Much might be written in the Openings of the Lord but this is sufficient as I think to acquaint thee how it goes with us Farewell and be saluted From thy dear Friend James Claypoole Junior Waltham-Abby the 19th of 10th Moneth 1679.
