3-10 Jan 1738:22, 31 (941)
Friend Bradford,  As oppression and tyranny are and ever
have been with all ages, yokes of too heavy burden to be
bourn without complaint; so by oppression and tyranny I have
been and am now so much aggrieved and distrest; that often
makes me complain with the Royal Psalmist--in the following
manner:
  Do thou, O God, in mercy help, 
  For man my life pursues:
  To crush me with repeated wrongs, 
  He daily strife renews.
  . . . [44 more lines, then explanation by author, signed]
