Wife. — What say you O to Him for?

W.A. — I prayed to Him to open your eyes and your understanding, that you may know Him, and be accepted by Him.

Wife. — Can He do that too?

W.A. — Yes, He can: He can do all things.

Wife. — But now He hear what you say?

W.A. — Yes, He has bid us pray to Him, and promised to hear us.

Wife. — Bid you pray? When He bid you? How He bid you? What you hear Him speak?

W.A. — No, we do not hear Him speak; but He has revealed Himself many ways to us.

[Here he was at a great loss to make her understand that God has revealed Himself to us by His word, and what His word was; but at last he told it to her thus.]
