XVI Improvidence 25
A direct avowal
of the private motive

Wales, and Gaols as with prisoners
that Parliament has forbidden be put to be put thus

He begs of me accordingly therefore, that the £100,000 public money
that has been spent in the particular

A few things will be necessary, to be done odd jobs he begs me to do must indeed be done to rid him of this
nuisance, but if they were as difficult as they are easy
who could I refuse the so good a friend? is such a man to be The £12,000
that has been spent in the public money must be thrown away,
together with as much time as may be necessary for indemnifications. It will be impossible to tell me for how to go on keep on
nifications. Which he is He would put to go if with propagating
the Gospel as he says Greek text I must keep at can in comfort if I did do and keep every where
