what he has written has in the highest situation read in that been read, and publickly
extensivepatent intend in the two most extensive : – Yes, my Lord, and to posterity
for what he has written has more directly been even been much more decidedly addressed
to posterity, than to any such powers as he has found in existence it has been his lot to f
behold among the powers that be – is it to be allowed to him so
to protect declare this and to make known, with an Act of Parliament among his proofs that can in g was suffered
