I was crying to the Lord...

"I was crying to the Lord, to free me from the burden I groaned under; the Word of the Lord came to me, saying, ‘My grace is sufficient for thee, I will deliver thee’. And by the power of this Word, I was armed with patience to wait in his counsel; groaning under the body of sin in the day and hour of temptation, until it pleased the Lord to manifest his power to free me... I witness that I am regenerated and born again of the immortal Seed, and having partaken of the first resurrection, over such the second death hath no power" [The Life of William Dewsbury, ed. Smith, 1836, p. 38–9].
