Parly Reform Sinecures
Say it is not necessary to name names – the being in a
system – all individuals would do as they.
Not one of them all who if reminded of the effect
could might not "smoting that sacred tabernacle of truth
"his bosom", declares his sorrow for this sorrow impressed upon it
by the consideration of that disastrous effect – declare
and with a sincerity which to in the eyes of a man in whose
composition but a grain of candour or even discernment
were to be found.
There is what may be assumed with confidence
and that without any such needless trouble as that
of looking out for names, or any such invidious
and perilous occupation as that of scrutinizing
into characters.
In the instance of the Judge of the Admiralty
prize Court it what is sufficient to know is that he is an a British
subject Englishman – it what is not necessary to know is that he is
a Sir William Scott.
In the instance of the his Majesty's Advocate
it is sufficient to know that he also is an Englishman a British
it is not necessary to know that he is a
Sir John Nichol.
In the instance of the King's Proctor, it is sufficient
to know that he likewise notwithstanding his foreign name is a native is an Englishman, it is
not necessary to know that he is a Mr Crespigny.
