I paused a minute, and then replied : Lord, the op pressed shall go free. And I was as dear of thtm in my mind as xfl never owned one. I told them they did not belong to me ; that 1 did not desire their services without making them a compensation. I was now at liberty to proceed in worship. After singing I kneeled to pray. Had I the tongue of an angel I could not fully describe what 1 felt ; all my dejection and that melancholy gloom which op pressed me vanished in a moment, and a divine sweetn...ess ran through my whole frame. It was God, not man, that taught me the impropriety of holding slaves, and I shall never be able to praise Him enough for it. My very heart has bled since that for slave holders, especially those who make a profession of religion. For I "believe it to be a crying sin. " In the above plain, unvarnished, yet highly beautiful narrative, we have an exhibition of the operation of the Holy Spirit upon an awakened and an obedient mind ; and also an exemplification of the doctrines, measures, and practice of Abolitionism.
