Mace(i)
3 When I remember you, as I continually do in my prayers night and day, I give thanks to God, whom I serve with a pure conscience, after the example of my fore-fathers.
4 when I call to mind your affliction, it makes me ardently desire the exceeding pleasure I shall have in seeing you:
5 especially when I reflect upon the sincerity of your faith, and the attachment your grand-mother Lois first show'd, and then your mother Eunice, examples which I am persuaded you will follow.
