Description'Yesterday I had another Dose given me, which greatly discompos'd me for the day; and such frequency, must destroy the parts acted on. And tho' I impute it principally to a fault in the King, your Grace is also blamable, by being still in the Ministry and having had a hand in what involv'd me into those troubles', and urging that his letter dated the previous day [missing] may be presented to George III 'to the end that I may be instant reliev'd, or brought to condign punishment.'
