After Recovery From Long Illness

Dear niece Neena,

How grateful are we all to God for your complete recovery form typhoid ! in the anxious live-long nights we had a sad sinking feeling. In fact, mummy had often given you up for lost and we shed secret tears. Once and again I felt that I shall have the pleasure of meeting you only perhaps in another birth.

No human gauge can measure our joy. You live to be with us! And in this very birth too ! surely, you have fought against a dread dragon and defeated it with divine doggedness. For the strength you have sipped from this rare recovery, may heavens bestow longevity on your earthly pilgrimage !

Affectionately ,

Dear Uncel,

I owe my health to good wishes and prayers of near and dear ones like you rather than the medicines and injections of physicians. Truly said Tennyson: “such things are wrought by prayers as the world can never dream of.”

 I never knew whether I was dead or alive until your hymns echoed in my ears as I lay somnambulant for weeks at a stretch. Yours prayers have lured the fleeing spirit back into the mortal coil.

I shall never be able to repay you for the toils , troubles asd tribulations I caused you when I lingered precariously between life and death.

Yours lovingly
