Sivu 212 - GilesChalfont, a mile from me ; of which I gave him notice, and intended to have waited on him and seen him well settled in it ; but was prevented by that imprisonment.
Sivu 435 - Wash, Lord, and purify my heart, And make it clean in every part; And when 'tis clean, Lord, keep it too, For that is more than I can do.
