LONDON,May 27,O.S.1752
MY DEAR FRIEND:I send you the inclosed original from a friend of ours,with my own commentaries upon the text;a text which I have so often paraphrased,and commented upon already,that I believe I can hardly say anything new upon it;but,however,I cannot give it over till I am better convinced,than I yet am,that you feel all the utility,the importance,and the necessity of it;nay,not only feel,but practice it.
