my way to the Synod in Barby, in 1775, I visited Copen
-hagen
, where I was first awakened, and became ac-
-quainted with our Saviour and the Brn. My heart
was filled with joy, and gratitude,
at seeing there
such a numerous flock of Children of God, united 
together upon the death of Jesus, besides a great
number have already from time to time gone either
to our Saviour, or to the Congn. One day as I
passed the Street, I went past the house where, in
the year 1739, our Saviour first manifested 
himself, to me, as my dying Redeemer, and melted
and overcome my heart. I stopped and looked
at it with tears of gratitude in my eyes, and the
grace I had at that time received in that house
was as new to me, as tho' it had been bestowed
upon me that very day; I then went to see my only
Sister on another Island, who was married to
another man, both of them being awakened.
She had always had a very great love for me,
and the joy at seeing one another again, after
an absence of 34 years, was great.
I had 
scarce been half an hour with her, before she
sat down and wept, and when I asked her the
reason of it, She said: I weep at the thoughts that
we must part again.
