Excerpt from A Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles

I received your Commentary on the Acts of the Apostles which you were pleased to send me, and give you a thousand thanks for the share which you are thus so kind as to afford me in your remembrance, which I have entertained, not only with all due acknowledgment, but also with much joy, as coming from a person who is and ever shall be very dear to me, and for whom I have a most particular esteem. I have perused your Commentary, though it came but lately to my hands, and I have found in it, as in all your other works, the marks of a copious reading, abundance of sense, right reason, and a just and exact understanding; and I do not doubt but that this Commentary will be kindly received by the learned, and prove very useful to all those who apply themselves to understand the Scriptures. This shows you, Sir, not to be idle, and that vou manage well the talents God has been pleased to bestow upon you. The public will be very much obliged to you, if you continue, as I hepe you will, and which I take the freedom to exhort you to.do, to make similar presents. For my own part, I find in it a great edification, and wish with all my heart, it lay in my power to manifest it to you by effectual services. I beseech you to be persuaded of this truth, and that you would preserve me the honour of your friendship, which I shall ever look upon as very much to my advantage. I take my leave, praying God he would continue to pour out upon you his holy benedictions: assuring you that I am, Sir, Your most humble and most obedient servant, claude. Paris, April 15, 1684. For Dr. Du Veil, London.
