^6 Anne Bradfti'cet s Works.
My weaknes, thou do'ft know full well,
Of Body and of mind. I, in this world, no comfort haue,
But what from Thee I lind.
Tho : children thou haft given me,
And freinds I haue alio: Yet, if I fee Thee not thro: them,
They are no Joy, but woe.
O fhine vpon me, blefled Lord, Ev'n for my Saviour's fake;
In Thee Alone is more then All, And there content Til take.
O hear me. Lord, in this Reqveft, As thov before ha'ft done:
Bring back my hufband, I befeech. As thov didft once my Sonne.
So fhall I celebrate thy Praife, Ev'n while my Dayes fhall laft;
And talk to my Beloued one Of all thy Goodnes pad.
��Winthrop uses the same expression in a letter to his son (" Life and Let- ters," p. 250).
" But such as will roll thoir ways upon the Lord, do find him always as good as his word."
