I have sometimes thought of recommending
[him] to our Author to enlist himself under
[Dr Price and] the Triumverate
of Scotch Doctors slaughter'd (not to say butcher'd) two of them at least and brought
embalmed into eminence notice by Dr Priestly: like
Aleander and Halius and Pigtanis and Noemon, &
these other worthies of the Trojan party,
of whom we knew nothing till they
were killed.

With his shewy appearance and insinuating address he might
make no mean figure in a corps that chosen legion which
proves men for admission not by the
attitude of their conceptions, but by the
stiffness of their necks, and by the capacity
of their swallows.

He might have betaken betake himself thought I
to that Sect as possessing a palliative for
absurdities, as can that nothing else could palliate,
as Constantine is said to have done to
that of the Christians as possessing an offering a
expio propitiation for crimes, which nothing
else could expiate.

But upon second thoughts not even this shelter
hapless expedient would serve could avail him asylum could receive protect him..
Had he stuck to saying, let it be it have been
what it would, there might have been some
hope for him. But for a writer who is
perpetually unsaying in one page (or who says not any a thing in one page but to unsay it in the next
in one line) what he had been saying in the
foregoing, who if he is right in one breath
is for the same reason as surely wrong the another next: for a writer
plunged into a slate of reprobation so thus incorrigible,
there is no such thing as hoping once to be once tried, is
for ever to be condemned. Him No Sect that lives can
flatter himself with salvation.
