Lone-Inn Thursday Oct 8. 1776.
Ah! you young scape-grace you, what a world have
plague hast thou put me to, by running away with the
key of that sacred mansion? Besides bestowing on thee a whole peal of "Shekas", I should have called thee
"fool" a hundred times for it, had not I consider'd that
like as the puissant Amasis saw no reason why he shouyld
be damned himself for the love of his fair daughter the tender Amasida,
no more was there why I should damn myself to
satiate my wrath, how soever minted, against thee: ainsi with
equal prudence and piety je me suis contentè de te maudir.
Pour la clef, graces a dieu, j'en suis maitre
encore une fois, par la politesse de Mr Nairne, qui
a eu la bontè de me l'envoyer par un de ses gens.
