Ans. Nothing but to wish you well.

Of saluting by another.

Remember my hearty Love to Frobenius.  Be sure to remember my Love to little Erasmus.  Remember me to Gertrude’s Mother with all imaginable Respect; tell them I wish ’em all well.  Remember me to my old Companions.  Remember me to my Friends.  Give my Love to my Wife.  Remember me to your Brother in your Letter.  Remember my Love to my Kinsman.  Have you any Service to command by me to your Friends?

Ans. Tell them I wish them all heartily well.

Sal. Have you any Recommendations to send by me to your Friends?

Ans. Much Health to them all, but especially to my Father.

Sal. Are there any Persons to whom you would command me any Service?

Ans. To all that ask how I do.  The Health you have brought from my Friends to me, carry back again with much Interest.  Carry my hearty Service to all them that have sent their Service to me.  Pray do so much as be my Representative in saluting my Friends.  I would have written to my Son in Law, but you will serve me instead of a Letter to him.

Sal. Soho, soho, whither are you going so fast?

Ans. Strait to Louvain.

Sal. Stay a little, I have something to send by you.

Ans. But it is inconvenient for a Footman to carry a Fardel?  What is it?

Sal. That you recommend me to Goclenius, Rutgerus, John Campensis, and all the Society of Trilinguists.

Ans. If you put nothing into my Snapsack but Healths, I shall carry them with Ease.

Sal. And that you may not do that for nothing, I pray that Health may be your Companion both going and coming back.

How we ought to congratulate one that is return’d from a Journey.

We are glad you are come well Home.  It is a Pleasure that you are come Home safe.  It is a Pleasure to us that you are come well Home.  We congratulate your happy Return.  We give God Thanks that you are come safe Home to us.  The more uneasy we were at the Want of you, the more glad we are to see you again.  We congratulate you and ourselves too that you are come Home to us alive and well.  Your Return is the more pleasant by how much it was less expected.

Ans. I am glad too that as I am well myself I find you so.  I am very glad to find you in good Health.  I should not have thought myself well come Home if I had not found you well; but now I think myself safe, in that I see you safe and in good Health.
