Joseph Smith (9 Nov. 1835): "I was verry concious that I had not kept the commandments, and I repented hartily for all my sins and transgression"

Joseph Smith's journal (scribe Warren Parrish):

When I was about 17 years old I saw another vision of angels, in the night season after I had retired to bed I had not been a sleep, when but was me ditating upon my past life and experiance, I was verry concious that I had not kept the commandments, and I repented hartily for all my sins and transgression, and humbled myself before Him[1]
