Philadelphia.  On Sunday last the Rev'd Mr. Whitefield
preach'd twice, tho' apparently much indisposed, to very
large congregations in the New-Building in this city, and
the next day set out for New-York. . . And the lines of Mr.
Westly concerning another young Methodist, may be justly
applied to his dear friend Whitefield, 
"Wise in his prime, he waited not for noon, 
"Convinc'd, that mortal never liv'd too soon;
"As if foreboding here his little stay, 
"He makes his morning bear the heat of day.
. . . [3 lines follow.]
