7 Jany 1807

Ah, my Lord, you who can, as far as any one man
can, and further – I call upon you in the name of
the whole people of Scotland: their hearts I hope will
not their loads I am sure will can not disarm me
I call upon you – Give us our duties: give us our
duties that we may have them: give us our laws that we
may obey them. The will is ours already: give us what
alone we ask, of the Minister of the Commons – of the
Lords, of the Sovereign – of any – the possibility of
obedience. Rights we ask for none, against law: rights
unless in the language of poets the poet and rhetorician as persons of name, but under and from the law: rights
we see none, but through the medium of our duties: give
us our duties, and then and not till then we shall know
and have our rights.
