is the state of his Majesty's health such as to render him Isis
capable of cosniux in person to his Parliament, or of :tticialing
to any k•nd of ptiblic business ?—flis Majesty's state is not such
as to enable him to come to ha Parliament, Or to atteud to any
kind of public business.
What.is the present state of his lifajestv's bodily health?—The
present state of his Majesty's bodily health is by uo means good,
though it may he considered, generally s; caking, better than
under the circumstances of want of air as d exercise might have
been expected. Phis morning his Majesty is in an extremely
agitated and nervous state, which has been increasing for some
I wee past.
What is the present state of his Majesty's mental health liss-The
state of his Majesty's mental health is worse at present thaw it has
been at any time since his attack.
Adverting to the state of his Majesty's mental health 'into your
last examination before a Committee of the House of Condoms-,
are you now of opinion that his Majesty's recovery is prstbaul:
or improbable l—Extremely improbable.
Are you of odiniots that his Majesty's recovery is hopeless !
I do not think it impossible; but I re Ily hardly know how to
apply the word hopeless in a medical sense. it is only apidicaltk
to a state somewhere between extreme improbability and impos-
sibility, but that is a state so extremely difficult to ascerthin. and
in the greater puns er of instances will be transient, that I
hardly know how to apply. the words. Ido not think it ins-
, possible, but it is in my opinion all but irapossible.
11 hen did you brst form your opinion that hi. Majesty's re-
covery was extremely improbable ?-1 began to have a very in
different opinion of his Majesty's state soon after tbedbegissainil
of the paroxysm in July ; asides the symptoms have never given
way in any respect. my hopes have cosamaally deers swed.
