kept from 1-31 May 1757, small 4to (19 x 15cm), 48pp., despite the best intentions "found myself very unfit for exercises of devotion... quite out of tune for any spiritual thing... very little given to prayer.. attempted to pray but all to little purpose, spending the day in idle vain thoughts & words.. quite unfit for serving God, O what a miserable thing is this wicked heart... was employed all morning in prayer or meditations and reading the Bible... Bostin of Trail's sermons...", stitched, no wrappers
