Letter # 10: “the God of all consolations”
My very noble and worthy Lady,
So oft as I call to mind the comforts that I myself, a poor friendless stranger, received from your Ladyship here in a strange part of the country, when my Lord took from me the delight of mine eyes (Ezek. 24.1), as the [...]
