Strona 238 - It wiH be my duty, likewise to act upon another motive — that of giving an example of patience and resignation under every trial. Do me the justice to believe that I shall never cease to pray for your happiness, and to be Your much devoted May 6, 1796.
Strona 67 - Inquiry, as distinctly as on the former facts: that as, on the one hand, the facts of pregnancy and delivery are, to our minds, satisfactorily disproved, so, on the other hand, •we think...
Strona 187 - ... should have been disposed to have met such a charge with the contempt which, I trust, by this time, your majesty thinks due to it ; I should have been disposed to have defied my enemies to the utmost, and to have scorned to answer to any thing but a legal charge, before a competent tribunal ; but, in my present misfortunes, such force of mind is gone.

Tranquil and comfortable society is, however, in our power ; let our intercourse, therefore, be restricted to that, and I will distinctly subscribe to the condition which you required, through Lady Cholmondeley, that even in the event...

Strona xii - Y.our royal highness will also pardon me for adding, that there is no less inconsistency than injustice in this treatment. He who dares advise your royal highness to overlook the evidence of my innocence, and disregard the sentence of 'complete acquittal which it produced-; >or is wicked and false enough still to whisper suspicions in your ear, betrays his duty to you, sir, to your daughter, and to your people, if he counsels you to permit a day to pass without a further investigation of my conduct....
Strona 238 - The letter which you announce to me as the last, obliges me to communicate to the King, as to my Sovereign, and my Father, both your avowal and my answer. You will find enclosed the copy of my letter to the King.
