It is alike natural and usual for persons addressing
themselves in from a situation like mine to a situation
like your Lordship's, to profess much confidence
to an be not unsparing of in professions of confidence.
For my part, not having it in my power to make
any such professions consistently with sincerity can not
be made I shall make none. Confidence according
to this says according to the proverb with which the language
has been considered by the father of Mr Pitt
is a plant of slow growth in an aged bosom.
hence, when the promises of his son their binding nature first planted
it thus was not then so aged then but that it the plant took root
but too promptly, and flourished but too exuberantly rigorously.
It has at length been compleatly
torn up and extirpated and grubbed up by experience. The [+] agent in it

hear it the truth: it did not suit him. Nor yet could he refuse to hear
it: he darest not: because shewing that such refusal
would have been contrary to the first principle of
justice. He took neither course: an evasion from
Mr Henry Addington was adopted as
a preferable one. Mr Nepean will either never be
