In this thankful Frame I continu'd all the Remainder of my Time，and the Conversation which employ'd the Hours between Friday and I，was such，as made the three Years which we liv'd there together perfectly and compleatly happy，if any such Thing as compleat Happiness can be form'd in a sublunary State. The Savage was now a good Christian，a much better than I；though I have reason to hope，and bless God for it，that we were equally penitent，and comforted restor'd Penitents；we had here the Word of God to read，and no farther off from his Spirit to instruct，than if we had been in England.
I always apply'd my self in Reading the Scripture，to let him know，as well as I could，the Meaning of what I read；and he again，by his serious Enquiries，and Questionings，made me，as I said before，a much better Scholar in the Scripture Knowledge，than I should ever have been by my own private meer Reading. Another thing I cannot refrain from observing here also from Experience，in this retir'd Part of my Life，viz. How infinite and inexpressible a Blessing it is，that the Knowledge of God，and of the Doctrine of Salvation by Christ Jesus，is so plainly laid down in the Word of God；so easy to be receiv'd and understood：That as the bare reading the Scripture made me capable of understanding enough of my Duty，to carry me directly on to the great Work of sincere Repentance for my Sins，and laying hold of a Saviour for Life and Salvation，to a stated Reformation in Practice，and Obedience to all God's Commands，and this without any Teacher or Instructer；I mean，humane；so the same plain Instruction sufficiently serv'd to the enlightning this Savage Creature，and bringing him to be such a Christian，as I have known few equal to him in my Life.
