8 Apr. 1802
Dispensing power

Lordship has already seen in the Secret Minutes §
letters in which the plan of offering insult offered to
the individual, the oppressed and injured individual
– was made the instrument of the contempt
manifested put upon for the authority of Parliament: letters
according to which instead of the necessary thousand
engaged for from the first, and the additional thousand
promised afterwards, five hundred prisoners convicts were to
be offered afterwards, with the undisguised intention
of giving none: and for this intention on a justification
sought in the plan of undisguised transparent perfidy
delineated by the duke and his subordinates in the few grounds of relinquishment
beginning with the perfidy of studied procrastination
and ending with the treachery of imputing
to me the an act of their own an end for the
purpose of converting it into a cause of forfeiture.

If the pretensions and designs thus
manifested had been advanced manifested in an unguarded
moment – manifested for want of sufficient deliberation and
afterwards retracted – this such supposed precipitation coupled
with such supposed subsequent retraction retractation, might
have afforded, if not a justification, capable of
in negative in the doing away the criminality at least an
and acting capable of contributing a lessening it:
plea for the alteration of the punishment: though
even in this case, the prosecution of the design as manifested
by the subsequent letters and the consummation of
it as manifested by the event would have been
incompatible with any retraction capable of being pleaded in that character with any effect.
