New Wales Extended empire
Yet setting aside these less resplendent merits
aside, the man to whom I could bestow more pay a tribute?
unreserved and unqualified applause, is
Herschel! Cook The gifts of Cook are here and
there a spot in one of the planets, and that a
small one: the present offered <add>issued</add> by Herschel is
a whole one. The presents of Cook the navigator have
cost the nation £400,000 in four years: and
this but a beginning of expence those sorrows that are the fruits
of prodigality: the offering of Herschel have cost
the gratitude of a munificent a generous master £200 a year, but the
nation not a farthing. New Holland with
its insatiable robs our little island of its
sustenance: the Georgian sides heaven be
for ever praised for it!) is out of the reach of
colonization.
