26 March 1802
reference he would have set down, to his own
account in a exercise full measure of the milk of
human kindness – and to mine a heart load a full breast-load
of obligation – that then if by prayers and tears
and groans I had turned into flesh and
blood the hearts of all these potentates – and the
paper, had enriched with all their signatures
had found its way back to and laid itself upon
his table – and at length to make short of by the information of some compassionate
sympathizing spy I had at last discovered it the pretious document and
laid my hands on it – No, my Lord – that he would not – he would not have
torn it from me.
Thus far my Lord, my conception stretches,
– but if I am to attempt to stretch it further a hair's breadth a hair's breadth more, and
it would burst.
My Lord, this is not all from imagination,
the taunt of obligation for exertions meant
to be ineffectual –⊞ ⊞ for cordials to keep the breath of life lingering under torture – this my Lord is from memory for slow tortures substituted to
speedy quick death – is from memory and from memory
loaded to wounded by repetitions. What business was it of mine?
Did not I do this, and that and t'other? What
business had I to stir about meddle with it?
