or not – a character more repugnant to my feelings it could be more to to wear bear than that
of eating much and deserving earning little.
Though for Mr Pitt's lost place the Grand declaimer's lost forfeited exhibition I would could not condemn
myself to put on wear his schoolboy haughtiness –
Your Lordship has perhaps perceived –
though attention be my pride
I am not without my pride though my inferiors those who have need of me
see feel no signs of it.⊞ ⊞ Though my Convicts if I had them would be treated with more kindness by and answered with more punctuality than Mr Long ever had found for me or Mr Pitt for — Lord of the a Duke when or a County Member whom he thought he could scorn with safety
Notwithstanding all this, were I – observe oppressed – deserte
impoverished neglected deserted as I am – were I Your Lordship
may have experienced – am not without my pride: and
and degraded I must been in my own eyes – cer been low indeed I must have sunk in my own eyes – before
I could submitt to myself with in the same
class or species of men – as or to be confounded in the estimate of whose who know me – Mr Rose, a Mr
Long, a Mr Baldwin or a Duke of Portland
What the Portugueze has to Spaniard like these. My Lord, are to me: –
Solitude obscurity poverty – "every thing is acceptable
"to me that seems to distinguish me from you".
Thus then stands the matter about compensation –
was it possible we should agree? A sham compensation
I would not have – a real one they could not
give me if they would: but they never would have
given me so much as a sham one.
A burthen to my country I would not be made
I told them so from the first. But their only expedient
for disburthening themselves from shame, was by the making
me a burthen to the country – such a burthen as
themselves.
