French Regicides, to the effrontery at Florence & the cacade
at Genoa inclusive, I question whether at some future
period when facts remain & passions will be evaporated, it will
not be thought that even for the sake of a good cause
we should not have kept such very bad company. Posterity
may think it somewhat extraordinary for England the
first Government in point of liberty in Europe to coalise
with the bigotted Spaniard, the ignorant Austrian, the barbarous
Russian together with the military mechanism
of Prussia in support of Social order & legitimate government,
& that too, at the very time when the two last
Powers commit an act agt an innocent & independent
nation which in point of arrogance & depravity cannot be
equalled in History.
