I perceive this, Sir, to be very true; and this it is which causeth a
continual combat in me, and createth in me greater anxiety than I am
able to express. Nor am I unacquainted with the disease of my own soul,
which you have so clearly declared. Alas! I perceive and lament this
malady, which so miserably disturbeth my sight; whence I feel such
irregular and convulsive motions drawing me on this side and that side.
The Spirit seeth not as the Flesh seeth, neither doth, nor can, the
Flesh see as the Spirit seeth. Hence the Spirit willeth against the
Flesh; and the Flesh willeth against the Spirit in me. This hath been
my hard case. And how shall it be remedied? O how may I arrive at the
Unity of Will, and how come into the Unity of Vision?
