Stephen Taylor Quotes

"I Had Enjoyed Much Peace There In The Absence Of Every Comfort, Even Of Such As Are Now Enjoyed In Jail. I Used To Say That There Were Four Privations In My Situation - Fire, Water, Earth And Air. No Fire To Warm Oneself On The Coldest Day, No Water To Drink But What Was Tainted, No Earth To Set The Foot On, And Scarcely Any Air To Breathe. Yet, With All These Miserable Circumstances, We Spent Many A Happy Hour By Candlelight In That Wretched Cabin Whilst I Sewed And He Read The Bible To Me.
