My Dear Sister,
J. Wesley I shall look for a letter at York.

My Dear Sister,
Certainly you judge right. Do not entangle yourself with the things of this world. Neither give occasion to any to speak reproachfully. Therefore accept of no deed or writing whatsoever which should tie her down to do anything for you one day longer than she would do without it. What she will do day by day without hurting herself or any one else is liable to no exception. O stand fast in glorious liberty, and be subject to no creature, only so far as love constrains. By this sweetest and strongest tie, you are now subject to, dear Sally,
Your affectionate friend and brother,J. Wesley I shall look for a letter at York.
