Note 51 — Chapter IX
Reading edition
Lady Conway was a person of great piety, and a favourer of Friends. In a letter to the learned and excellent Dr. Henry More, who was her particular friend, she thus expresses herself concerning them:—
“Your conversation with them (the Friends) at London might be, as you express it, charitably intended, like that of a physician frequenting his patients for the increase or confirmation of their health; but I must confess, that my converse with them is, to receive health and refreshment from them.”—See Appendix to Barclay’s second edition of Isaac Penington’s Letters, p. 311.
