Come, my Dear Lord, your pioneer has
broke ground, and now is the time for
you to bring up your battering cannon.

s'agit now
To heap coals of fire upon Pitt's
head, I have written him a bullying
letter, (bullying because being a minister it would
not have been to wish to him otherwise)
enclosing duplicates of the enclosed, but
offering a quiet memorial if he will read
it, and giving him a day to
on pain of war. He will take let the day pass no notice.
and then - the Lord hath delivered him into
your hands: and the milk of my memorial
turns into the aqua fortis of a
party pamphlet.
Tactics have accordingly been suspended,
spite of Mirabeau's "vive impatience". — I am
ashamed to confess, even to give, how much
the wish to find employment for yousee you employ'd at a
time that employment is the necessary has
contribution to this digression of .
I am flattered by Lady Lansdown is permission
comforted by the thoughts that she is in a condition to
give it, & hope to profit by it on Friday.
