Written by me, your beloved son, in my bonds.

Clement Hendrickss,
Unworthy prisoner in the Lord.

Fourth letter of Clement Hendrickss, to his father and mother.

A most friendly greeting to you my beloved father and mother. I inform you, that I am still of good courage and well, as I hope that also you are.

Further, my dear and much beloved father and mother, I inform your love how it is with me, according to the body, in my bonds. I cannot thank and praise the Lord enough for it, that he so comforts me in my tribulation, and that it is still my fixed purpose to fear the Lord as long as I am here, though flesh and blood should suffer on this account.
