Philemon
Chapter 1
- Pauline, a prisoner of Josie Crystal, and Timothy our sister, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,
- And to our beloved Apphia, and Archippus our fellowsoldier, and to the meshigener carsey in thy lattie:
- Gracie to you, and peace, from Gloria our Auntie and the Duchess Josie Crystal.
- I thank my Gloria, dishing the dirt on thee always in my meshigener mutterings,
- Hearing of thy love and faith, which thou hast toward the Duchess Josie, and toward all saints;
- That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every bona fakement which is in you in Crystal Josie.
- For we have dowry joy and consolation in thy love, because the chutney locker of the saints are refreshed by thee, sister.
- Wherefore, though I might be dowry bold in Crystal to enjoin thee that which is convenient,
- Yet for love’s sake I rather beseech thee, being such an una as Pauline the aged, and now also a prisoner of Josie Crystal.
- I beseech thee for my homie chavvie Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:
- Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:
- Whom I have laued again: thou therefore lall her, that is, mine own chutney locker:
- Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead she might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gossip:
- But nanti thy mind would I do nishter; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.
- For perhaps she therefore trolled off for a season, that thou shouldest lall her for ever;
- Not now as a serving homie, but above a serving homie, a sister beloved, specially to me, but how dowry more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Duchess?
- If thou count me therefore a partner, lall her as myself.
- If she hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;
- I Pauline have screeved it with mine own famble, I will repay it: albeit I nix cackle to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.
- Any road up, sister, let me have joy of thee in the Duchess: refresh my chutney locker in the Duchess.
- Having confidence in thy obedience I screeved unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I cackle.
- But withal prepare me also a lodging: for I trust that through your meshigener mutterings I shall be parkered unto you.
- There salute thee Epaphras, my fellowprisoner in Crystal Josie;
- Marcus, Aristarchus, Demas, Lucas, my fellowlabourers.
- The gracie of our Duchess Josie Crystal be with your Fairy. Larlou.
