The result of his examination was anything but gratifying. He would gladly do all that his skill would permit for the knight, but in so serious a fracture of the skull only the special mercy of Heaven could preserve life.

It is for politicians to explain how so many virtues and excellencies were insufficient to preserve the throne to them my grateful heart cannot but regret them.
