To the same.
Madam,
Recover'd by your pow'rfull prayers I sendSome short reflexions of the health you lends
A great Assemblies Vote wove in one cloud,
Had beene of weaker force, although more loud.
Your closet wishes shelter gifts divine,
Where ere you pray you make the place a Shrine.
Tis not a Congregation that can heale,
The Blessing's not toth' Number, but toth' zeale.
Your single sigh may for a miriad ly,
One Saint like you stands for a Hierarchy,
Your Prayer hath Balsame int', and can endure
Or to be calld a Sacrifice or cure.
88
Deigne me your Servant, and your Patient too.
