That it is not possible to charge sugars with deities
Tying exactly with the quality or value. 3. That*

cker and demonstrative argument, to prove this am
to be a good man aid a man of God, Mid est is
this :—There was one Thomas Proctor, • very poor
beggar 04 i he ISinfilute this imitate, di the WWI •

him away, or chide him, and mattes fuss and send him
hack into his own country. No, beloved, he took him

gunmaker At Norwich. After his time was up he took
him hente Via . and married him to a kinswoman of
his wife's, one Mrs. Cbrisiiaus Babertecn, here pruned
—there she sits—she was • very good fortune, and to
her this good num gave a * jointure • by her
he had three daughters ; this good man took licine the
eldest, bought her up to woman's estate, married her to
• very honourable gentleman, Mr. Burton, here present
—there he sits—who gave him • vast portion with her;
and the remainder of his estate " he gave his two

of God, and his wife a good women? and eke came from
Holston Hall, beybnd Norwich. Beloved, you may
remember some time since I preached at the funeral of
Mrs. Proctor, at which time / trofibled you with some
of her trandendant virtues, but your memories may
perhaps Wren, and I shall therefore now remind yes
of one or . two of them. The first --she was a good
knitter, as any In the county of Norfolk. When her
husband and family were in bed sad asleep she
rzeo/n would get a cushion, clip herself d by the fire,
and sit there and knit, and make as work as many
',Dibrell windd at al stoejting. I OA& of stockings
on my legs that were knit in e lame Manner, and
they are the. best Stockings I ever were in my life.
tecondlY. she was the bent maker of toad in drink that
ever I,eet in my life, and they were brown toasts too,
for when I used to go in the morning she would ark
me to eat a tout; winch I am willing to do, bemuse
she has inch an artificial way of toasting of it, nova
slack or burning it ; besides, she had doh a pretty
way of !rating nutmeg and dipping it in the beir,ttl
such a piece of rare cheese that Imd il needs es, a
were the best treats I ever est in my life. WM -
loved, the days Ire abort, and many of you have a long •
way to go to your habitations, and therefore I hasten
to • oonolusion, I think I have anffloiently moved this
a good woman, but,
tail you, I shall
love to `-'
