Artifices

them ineffectual
The explicit manner in which their artifices
are mentioned may seem singular; it may
seem imprudent. Unless mentioned here, it may
be thought, they might not have occurred: ift
is putting armour into the hands of the
enemy.
These considerations did not weigh with me.
I have no such opinion of myself as that any
devices that could have excused the penetration
of those whose are interested is against
or reformation, should occur to me. When of
the most consummate talents, added to the
most exercised experiences are of the number. The interest
that note uponurges them is strong & manifest.
Yet farther: so far from apprehending any pairing from
such openness, I should hope from it.
There are some men who from their talents
and characters or situations cannot be neutral. One
way or other, when any affair of importance
is brought on the carpet, they
must take a leading part, " A very little

But were to devices here supposedspoken of ever so
