CONFLICTS AND COMFORTS 57 The stay at Gibraltar lasted thirteen days, and on the last day of it many came to <strong>Whitefield</strong>, weeping, to tell him what God had done for their souls, to ask for his prayers, and to promise him theirs in return. Others sent him presents of cake, wine, figs, eggs, and other necessaries for his voyage. Two hundred soldiers, women, officers, and others stood on the beach to see him go on board, and wish him ' good luck in the name of the Lord.' The results of his work he thus summed up : ' Many that were quite stark blind have received their sight ; many that had fallen back have repented and turned unto the Lord again ; many that were ashamed to own Christ openly have waxen bold ; and many that were saints have had their hearts filled with joy unspeakable and full of glory.' His labours on the ship also reformed the swearing captain and many of the soldiers. In the next portion of the voyage fever broke out on the ship, and carried off two of the worst men on board ; White- field was struck down for several days. To a friend he writes : ' How goes time ? I can scarce tell ; for I have been some time past, as one would think, launching into eternity. God has been pleased to visit me with a violent fever, which He, notwithstanding, so sweetened by Divine consolations, that I was enabled to rejoice and sing in the midst of it. Indeed, I had many violent conflicts with the powers of darkness, who did all they could to disturb and distract me ; and though I was once reduced to the last extremity, and all supernatural assistance seemed to be suspended for awhile, and Satan, as it were, had dominion over me, yet God suffered not my faith to fail, but came in at length to my aid, rebuked the tempter, and from that moment I grew better. Surely God is preparing me for something extraordinary ; for He has now sent me such extraordinary conflicts and comforts as I never before experienced. I was, as I thought, on the brink of eternity. I had heaven within me ; I thought of nothing in this world ; I earnestly desired to be dissolved and go to Christ but God was pleased to order it otherwise, and I am resigned, though I can scarce be reconciled to come back again into this vale of misery. ... I would write more, but my strength faileth me. We hope to be at Savannah on Monday.'
58 GEORGE WHITEFIELD <strong>Whitefield</strong>'s farewell sermon to the soldiers was preached on May 6th, and caused much weeping. On the evening of the following day he reached Savannah, where he was welcomed by Mr. Delamotte, the friend whom Wesley left behind him, and some other ' pious souls,' who were rejoiced at his arrival, and joined him in thanksgiving and prayer.
