BELFORD, TO ROBERT LOVELACE, ESQ. THURSDAY, JUNE 29. Thou hast heard from M'Donald and Mowbray the news. Bad or good, I know not which thou'lt deem it. I only wish I could have given thee joy upon the same account, before the unhappy lady was seduced from Hampstead; for then of what an ungrateful villany hadst thou been spared the perpetration, which now thou hast to answer for! I came to town purely to serve thee with her, expecting that thy next would satisfy me that I might endeavour it witho...ut dishonour. And at first when I found her gone, I half pitied thee; for now wilt thou be inevitably blown up: and in what an execrable light wilt thou appear to all the world!--Poor Lovelace! caught in thy own snares! thy punishment is but beginning. But to my narrative: for I suppose thou expectest all particulars from me, since Mowbray has informed thee that I have been collecting them. 'The noble exertion of spirit she has made on Friday night, had, it seems, greatly disordered her; insomuch that she was not visible till Saturday evening; when Mabell saw her; and she seemed to be very ill: but on Sunday morning, having dressed herself, as if designing to go to church, she ordered Mabell to get her a coach to the door.
