As I am come a great Way, so would I stay a great While
to receive you here; What say you to four Weeks longer, tell me
that it will enable you to give me your Company & your
Chemistry for three Weeks & you will make me happy.
But I am frightened at the name of Chateau-Antoine; when
I reflect that mine is a strongly built Castle, & that the Bastille
was in the fauxbourg St Antoine. But if these Reflections neither
prevent your coming nor excite in you when here the Spirit of
Demolition, I shall leave it to its fate when you are gone.
In the mean time I take the Opportunity while I can, of sending
you this Lettre de Cachet enjoining you & your Brother
to render yourselves here instantaneously upon Pain of
incurring our high Displeasure, et sur ce je prie Dieu de vous
avoir dans sa Digne et Sainte Garde. â Vous
