For my part, I value no censure on this ac- count. I have long since shook hands with the world, and I heartily wish I had never given them more reason to speak against me. 390 THE WESLEY FAMILY. " As for your proposal of letting some other person read. Alas ! you do not consider what a p'eople these are. I do not think one man among them could read a sermon, with- out spelling a good part of it ; and how would that edify the rest ? Nor has any of our family a voice strong enough to be heard by... such a number of people. " But there is one thing about which I am much dissatis- fied ; that is, their being present at family prayers. I do not speak of any concern I am under, barely because so many are present ; for those who have the honor of speak- ing to the great and holy dfod need not be ashamed to speak before the whole world ; but because of my sex. I doubt if it be proper for me to present the prayers of the people to God. " Last Sunday I fain would have dismissed them before prayers' ; but they begged so earnestly to stay, that I durst not deny them." How forcible are right words !
