Sir, I am the humblest of your Servants, and no∣thing joys me more than that my Ears are dally filled with the pleasing sound of your noble Actions and glorious Atchievements.

Sir, Your favour has revived me; and what shall I do, or how shall I express my self that some gratefull acknowledgment may appear, or that I may be any∣wa•••• a••counted worthy to be named amongst the number of your friends.

Sir, I must own my self the happiest of Mankind, since I am truly satisfied you have pardoned my rude∣ness,

committed more through inconsiderateness than any affront or disloyalty to friendship.

Sir, I shall ever esteem your happiness as my own, nor shall I share a joy willingly but with your self.

Sir, I own my self indebted to you in so high a nature, and my Abilities so small to bring me off, that I must confess my self at a loss, how I shall in any measure make you a sutable return; yet my will is good, and my person and service shall ever be at your devotion.

Sir, Did you know how earnestly I strive to pay an acknowledgment due to your Virtues, and how lit∣tle I am able to perform, you wou'd, past doubt, pity my fruitless labours.

Sir, when I seek for a Theam to inlarge upon, your Name is sufficient at once to supply and charm me, the sound of it being enough to compleat my largest intention, and to inspire me with rapture.

Great indeed, Sir, have been the Obligations you have laid upon me, and great must be my thoughts if I durst presume to make a sutable return.

The Man, Sir, that secures your friendship, must of necessity account himself rich, and repine no more at fortune.

Sir, I am proud of your last visit, and can only say that my poor habitation was never so grac'd, nor made so happy till then; knowing your parts, I cou'd do no less than chuse you to manage my affairs, and find by grand experience that I have so well prospered in your hands, that I find my self at a loss to let you know how much I am yours.

Sir, I have heard of your worth by fame, but find she has been to partial in not magnifying your de∣serts as truly they deserve.

Dear friend, Command me to do you service, that you may be a witness with what willingness and zeal I fly to serve you.

Dear friend, how much am I honoured by being seen in your company, and improved by your con∣versation.

I am, dear friend, the gratefull acknowledger of your bounty; and shou'd I forget it, I might be justly termed a monster in ingratitude.

Sir, I have met you so seasonably, that I must bless the opportunity which affords me this favour, and own that it has made me happy beyond my expecta∣tion.

Sir, I must almost with admiration, but especially with repeated thanks to Heaven and you, own I have found in you a true and real friend in that by with true friendship can only be distinguished from flat∣tery.

Sir, you do me too much honour in giving your self the trouble to grace my habitation.

Dear Sir, I am the humblest and most obedient of your Servants.

Sir, I am yours to be commanded, in what at all times you shall think convenient, to do you pleasure.

Sir, I shall make it my study, and will be proud that I can find out any way to oblige you.

Sir, As I am an honourer of true worth, I confess I can place my respects no-where better than in con∣tinuing your Admirer.

Sir, Since your have been pleased to give me the fa∣vour of a visit, let me return you my hearty thanks, and give you this further trouble, that you will bear my Service and Respects to your Lady.

Sir, Command my life and fortunes, and I'll lay 'em with the greatest willingness at your feet.

Sir, Let me embrace you with all the tender En∣dearments of a friend and tell you at what a rate I value your Love and Friendship.
