made me still more earnestly intreat our
Savior, to take me into eternal safety: as I fore=
=saw, that much hurt to my soul might ensue.
Going to rest one night with an <emotion>anxious and
burthened mind</emotion>, as usual, I besought the Lord
<emotion>with many tears</emotion> to save and deliver me from
what I so much dreaded; 'till at length <emotion>weary
and oppressed</emotion> I fell asleep, and had the following
remarkable dream. I thought my self possess'd
of a Beautiful ring, but how, or by what means
I received it, I could never recollect; it was placed
on my right hand, and I was commanded never to
lose it, or suffer it to be removed. This I thought

obey. In the midst of the ring was a large stone
so brilliant that it dazzled my sight. I was well
aware of its value: that with it, I should be e=
=ternally secure, and without it, I shouldbe eter=
=nally lost! Awful alternative! How ought I
to have trembled at the thought, But <emotion>I gazed
on the precious gem with delight</emotion>, and rejoiced in
my safety. My vain heart soon suggested to me,
that every beholder would be struck with admi=
=ration when they saw its transcendant lustre.
Immediately I was surrounded by a large com=
=pany of people, and my vanity was gratified
by seeing all eyes fixed on the inestimable Jew=
=el with which I was adorned. They begged
for a nearer view, and I reluctantly yielded
