First sentence: 1. BELOVED and much respected friend in Christ,-From a member-like obligation (as one branch on the tree is bound to do to the other) and a fellow-working desire, I wish unto you the open well-spring of grace, which God in Christ Jesus hath manifested in our humanity; so that it may richly spring up in you, and the divine sun may thereby cast the influence of its love-beams into the soul; and also therewith stir up and open the great magnetic hunger of the soul (being the true divine mouth) after Christ's flesh and blood, together with bodily welfare.
