t with every
eagerness, and have prevailed that a leave of absence shall be
granted to you to come away immediately, and this to prevent
public mischief. But it is understood that you resign the
commission on your arrival here. I have prevailed that the
messenger is to return very early to-morrow morning; and most
ardently do I wish to annihilate the next eight tedious days.
Feel for me, my dear brother; consult your reason and your
affection, and let me hope that you will feel that satisfaction
which every one of my family most earnestly feels at my
acceptance of the Lieutenancy of Ireland. You know what follows,
and you will have time to think it over; but I conjure you, by
everything which you prize nearest and dearest to your heart, by
the joy I have ever felt for your welfare, by the interest I
have ever taken in your uneasiness, weigh well your
determination; it decides upon the complexion of my future
hours. I am jealous and nice of your honour more than of my own;
but think that I have staked my happiness upon this cast; and
may God direct you, my dearest brother, to the only answer which
can convince me that your esteem and affection equals that which
I have ever borne you. God ever bless you.
