Q<2,5 bability above your expectation^ of being delivered from the misery of which you complain. You require a reason, why you should wait these uncer- tain events, rather than immediately secure your ease by means which are in your own power. Is then the natural Love of Life extinguished? If indeed that great principle, which was implanted in you, actuate you no longer, have you candidly examined whether it be not through your own fault ? — But we will not refuse to give you an im- portant reason, why you should for your own sake wish to prolong your life.
It is, the Pleasure to be derived fi'om the ex- ercise of Benevolence. Render yourself useful to mankind. Attend to the misfortunes of others.
Deliberate, as if the business were your own (which in reality it is), how you may administer relief to the miserable who fall under your notice : conceive yourself in their situations, and sympathize with their sorrows. Be assured it will divert that strict attention to your own misery, which forms no inconsiderable part of the misery itself, and will supply you with a source of positive enjoyment, to which your most private thoughts and coolest reflexion will give a reiterated approbation.
