At last, with much difficulty, he gave his consent; and as he was not therefore admitted to transportation in court, and on his petition, as I was, so he found himself under a difficulty to avoid embarking himself as I had said he might have done; his great friend, who was his intercessor for the favour of that grant, having given security for him that he should transport himself, and not return within the term.
Enfin, après beaucoup de difficultés, il consentit à partir; et comme il ne fut pas là-dessus admis à la déportation devant la cour, et sur pétition, ainsi que je l'avais été, il se trouva dans l'impossibilité d'éviter l'embarquement ainsi que je pensais qu'il pouvait le faire.
