So I stopped there; but though I could not say I thanked God for being there, yet I sincerely gave thanks to God for opening my eyes, by whatever afflicting providences, to see the former condition of my life, and to mourn for my wickedness, and repent.
Aquí me detuve y, aunque no pude darle gracias a Dios por hallarme allí, le agradecí sinceramente que me hubiese abierto los ojos, si bien mediante sufrimientos, para ver mi vida anterior y para lamentarme y arrepentirme de ella.
