THE DISTRESSED SOUL ANSWERED

The Creator hath hid his Countenance from me, so that I cannot come to

his Rest; therefore I am thus troubled, and know not what I shall do to

get his Loving-kindness again. For great cliffs and rocks lie in my way

to his Grace, so that I cannot come to him. Though I sigh and long after

him never so much, yet I am kept back, so that I cannot partake of his

Power, Virtue, and Strength.
