New Wales III Extended empire
Were the extended empire extension of empire indeed a blessing
this of New South Wales alias New Holland
would be in truth no despicable one: to our
own two little European island another of itself
equal to all Europe. True it is that the
Dutch were there before us, that the Dutch
have the prior right to it, if the taking up
here and there a straw gives a right to the
contents of the whole — that the Dutch
might be dispersed later to fight for
their right as well as we for our no-right,
and then we should have to beat them out of it.
True: but t'other day we forced the Dutch
to be our friends: therefore they will be our
friends freely tomorrow and for ever.
