On 14 October 1735, John and Charles Wesley set sail for the colony of Georgia on the Symonds along with several other English passengers and a group of Moravian missionaries. It must have been a grueling journey!As they passed the Isle of Wight John Wesley wrote:
Here the ragged rocks, with the waves dashing and foaming at the foot of them, and the white side of the island rising to such a height, perpendicular from the beach, gave a strong idea of "Him that spanneth the heavens, and holdeth the waters in the hollow of His hand!"
