ABSTRACT
The first symptoms of recovery that Sir Harold evinced, appeared in the gratitude he expressed towards his active and sympathising friends, who had scarcely ever quitted him during the late period of suffering: and who were still unwilling to leave him, dreading the effects of the first transports of his grief; its violence shewed itself, however, only in a fixt and immoveable determination not to quit the body till the hour of twelve had passed; an hour at which he appeared to have still some confused idea that / his late loved parent might desire his presence.
