_To the Same._
_Bristol, November 23, 1766._
_Dear Sir_,
SUCH a numerous brilliant assembly of the mighty and noble, I never
saw attend before at _Bath_. Every thing is so promising, that I was
constrained to give notice of preaching next _Sunday_. I hope the
Redeemer will give us a blessed sabbath. I trust already the arm of the
LORD hath been revealed. Congregations have been very large and very
solemn. O what _Bethels_ hath JESUS given to us! We were filled as with
new wine! O that GOD would make my way into every town in _England_!
Methinks I long to break up fresh ground, and to begin to begin to do
something for JESUS. I am just come here weary, but am going to speak a
few words. This prevents my enlarging; but I could not refrain writing
to one I so dearly love, and to whom I am so greatly obliged. GOD
bless you! GOD bless you and yours! Accept most unfeigned love and
acknowledgments, and still add to my innumerable obligations, by
praying for, my very dear Sir,
Yours, &c. in our glorious Head,
_G. W._
