It was very wonderful to see how person's affections were sometimes moved - when God did as it were suddenly open their eyes, and let into their minds a sense of the greatness of his grace, the fullness of their hearts as it were to leap, so that they have been ready to break forth into laughter, tears often at the same time issuing like a flood, and intermingling a loud weeping. Sometimes they have not been able to forbear crying out with a loud voice, expressing their great admiration.
