ABSTRACT

My letters are so long that it is hard to believe when I finish them that I have anything else more to tell you; yet, my dear Cousin, I never close any but there remains still sufficient for another. When I were only to speak to you of my friendship, this would be an inexhaustible subject; you may make some judgment of it from the pleasure I find in obeying your commands. You are desirous to know all the particulars of my voyage, I will therefore go on to relate them.
