My God hath filled my heart full of his Holy Spirit So that I can [ Speak?] from a heart filled with true love to god & man The Holy Spirit is with me all the time and puts words in my mouth just the kind I need & as I need them. I have great happiness & pleasure in the Lords work. Taking Our great Market three times in the week where thousa- nds of people meet. & preaching from House [deleted: to house] to house & have Thousands of times more work more than I can do. O that the Lord would send more labourers into his harvest field.
