The younger of the Miss Boveys is not well

Tues 6 July 1736: Hearing the younger of the Miss Boveys was not well, I called upon them this evening. I found she had only the prickly heat, a sort of rash very common here in summer. We soon fell into serious conversation, after I had asked if they did not think they were too young to trouble themselves with religion yet. And whether they might not defer it ten or a dozen years. To which one of them replied, ‘If it will be reasonable ten years hence to be religious, it is so now; I am not for deferring one moment.’
