I charge you stir not in any part of her will but by my express
direction. I will order every thing myself. For am I not her husband?
and, being forgiven by her, am I not the chosen of her heart? What else
signifies her forgiveness?
The two insufferable wretches you have sent me plague me to death, and
would treat me like a babe in strings.--D--n the fellows, what end can
they mean by it? Yet that crippled monkey Doleman joins with them. And,
as I hear them whisper, they have sent for Lord M.--to controul me, I
suppose.
What I write to you for is,
1. To forbid you intermeddling with any thing relating to her. To
forbid Morden intermeddling also. If I remember right, he has threatened
me, and cursed me, and used me ill--and let him be gone from her, if he
would avoid my resentment.
