HAVING enjoyed the pleasure of many accidental conferences with you on
metaphysical, moral, political, and religious subjects; on which you
ever seemed to converse with more sagacity, as well as more candor,
than is usual on the like occasions; I imagined it might not be
unentertaining either to you, or myself, to put together my sentiments
on these important topics, and communicate them to you from time to

it is the Happiness only, which we enjoy, or hope for, which can
convince us of his Goodness.
