Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Jerningham Letters, Vol. 1 of 2: 1780-1843, Being Excerpts From the Correspondence and Diaries of the Honourable Lady Jerningham and of Her Daughter Lady Bedingfeld But it is with real affliction I perceive that what you deem your Last farewell to the Public is of the same nature as your former addresses to it - a desire Of Scandalizing the Religion you were Baptized in, of separating yourself from every pious ancestor and present Connexion and indeed to stand alone, not upon the Rock which was founded by Christ, but upon the Baseless Fabric Of a Vision, the vain delu sion of a dream. I Lament such a sad infatuation but I have no Spirits to Combat it. You had the full Benefit of a Pious Catholic Education and I must yet hope that all the good Seed has not fallen among Thorns. Pray Reflect before it is too Late, and be well assured that The Religion which gave Such Comfort to your Late dear Brother in his Latter Moments, and which has even dignified his death, would in the same Manner Receive you, its former Votary; and that you would, in giving joy to Heaven, Cast Comfort on all your true Friends on Earth. I am ever with much Regard yours.' The answer was this morning, an enquiry after my Rheumatism, thanks for my Concern about his Spiritual Welfare, and that He will be here at five O'clock.
