I shall forget all the toils of my journey!
(James Meikle, "A Secret Survey into the State of the Soul" April 13, 1779)
There is one thing which is needful--
and only one thing. Henceforth let me
attend to it with diligence and care,
and not to make trifles such
matters of concern.
If I am traveling to my FATHER'S house,
I should attend closely to my journey,
and not consume myself with anxiety
about the climate, whether it it fair
or foul; whether the road is good or
bad; and whether I join agreeable
company, or walk alone.
For my FATHER'S house will
make me completely happy,
so happy that I shall forget
all the toils of my journey!
