XIX. To the religious pair of widows Mris. P. Green, and Mris. M. Russel, with the La. Falklands life.

I Know, when you have once perused it,
You must confesse the Book a present fit.
This Lady was compos'd of Alms and Pray'r:
You live in Imitat••on of Her.
Truly Religious, yet was she timorous too:
In this is no disparity: so are you.
By advise of Holy men, she still o'recame
Her feares and scruples: Doe not you the same?
She dyed with comfort, partakes heavenly joy:
That you may do so too, at last, I pray.
