Stetham for example, or that at Hendon
A low bow for the Antediluvian Shells: but
the Pardener laid me in t'other day a stock of brooms
and while there is a "single Stick" left, there will be
food enough for philosophy, which must forget
itself strangely, ere it can think of going to fish
for antediluvian Shells among sea-monsters —
As to precedents, there need by no want of them.
I speak of those in point and unexceptionable ones:
the thing wanting is a disposition to make use
of them. At present the pavillon is turned into
a Hospital for Refugees — Vaughan Consigns me
a Cargo on Saturday — I have obligations of the
same sort to Dumont: and now while I am
writing comes a note from Romilly announcing
similar ones for tomorrow: and what after all if
I should have to house poor La Rochefoucauld instead
