Aware of the manner in which to a degree beyond
 
my power of estimation the scheme would could not but be prejudicial
 
to the interests of the Bank of England, the success never had the <add>ultimate adoption
</add> of the
 
schemereturnbut from the first been regarded by the
 
scheme presented itself to me as standing in the scale of
probability much above the point of
hopelessness. Not so
 
much as one guinea would I have given to receive a hundred
in >one of success. But
 in comparison of the
 
advantage in that event which
presented
 itself to my eyes, the
 offering I cast cast as above into the
Treasury was but a
 
mite!
As Supposing the establishment of this currency, what
 
use or demand there could be for Bank paper I neither saw
nor saw found any reason for being anxious to inquire.
But the particular interest of that corporation is in
 
a way now understood which is not now a secret to any body when seen truth to all eyes
understood with the   of subservient to the most insatiable
 
of all lusts the lust of ambition power and in that way
inseparably linked and interwoven with that not only with
 
the sinister interest of any administration & but thence with every
the minutest fibre of the sinister interest of the ruling
 
few.
To have supposed the Bank would leave any imaginable
 
stone unturned that could present a possibility of crushing it
 
it would have been crushing it most would have been
crushing it with would have been
 an
among the most unpardonable of all weaknesses.
