In all these six particulars, let us seriously search and try our hearts, whether we be not among the number of those that make the times perilous. The third use is for humiliation.

"It grieves me to the heart to write any thing that may give you uneasiness; but such is the will of him who doeth all things well! Your brother Alexander, my dear friend, is no more!
