254.13
His hope was, he said, that His Majesty would with royal kindness, forgive his crimes and sins. Verse. I’ve come again to worship the dust of thy feet, If submission be ordered, I’m ready to pay it. “My hope is that on this occasion, I may by good service, obtain release from the heavy burden of shame.” His Majesty from the purity of his own nature, regarded his gold-incrusted copper as genuine, and accepted it according to the standard for fine gold.
