the of a prison is stifled removed from the privileged
positions of Battersea Rise: it the it costs the public is plundered
of but no more than £6,000 a year to upon the noble produce all this accommodation
and opulent Earl to accept of an offer of
larger salary and little : and thus every body
is satisfied.
Such are the colours, before in which,
according to my humble conception, the an arrangement
of this sort stamp would go abroad into the
world. I do not say they would in every particular be the true ones:
in my own instance I am sure they are not:
for no such arrangement though the £6000 a year was all clear gain to me, would satisfy me.
I do not say they are the true ones: but they have
so taken the trouble so much the appearance of
being true, and this imputation conveyed by them
is at least so plausible, that I must confess
I can not stand it. Were I ever so much my inclination ever
inclined so ductile, I could not bring myself to take a
step so perfectly in the teeth of all my former professions
and all my former practice: indeed forgive me, Sir,
but I have not nerves for it. In Lord Spencer's conception
diverse, yes without his band conception, I understand, his Lordships receptacle
of possible Villas is a sort of Naboths Vineyard: and myself a sort of
in by would be David in miniature. His concern According to him it is the
possible Villa to be that is my object. Sir, the possible Villa is my an object to
