§.2. Secret Plan for rendering the purchase useless
to require demand the breach of it.—No, my Lord:
in undertaking to prove perfectly (if such be
the result of an additional adherence to the plan
above delineated) I do not mean to undertake
to prove consistency upon Mr Long. It is a
task fortunately happily as unnecessary to my purpose
as it is beyond my powers, to give any thing like a compleat
history of whatever revolutions may have
taken place at different periods in the Honourable
Secretary's conscience, of whatever struggles battles may
have taken place have been carried on fought+ between
the powers of redaction of light and
darkness on the well beaten field debateable land of the Honourable
Secretary's conscience. Should he
it be by accident lie in his power—not that I
know it or even expect to find it so—to render
it probable—or even evident—that there have
been times when he has been sincere, it will not
much mend his case, nor weaken mine. The
sincere man is—not he who sometimes travels
on the path of sincerity, but he who never swerves
from it.
in so long
of time
in the course of
so many contentious
months
