 the reproach of negligence (for though negligence was 
proved upon them, worse than negligence was not either 
 proved or probable) the chief great wish of the Revolution 
was attempted to be do undone. To roast an 
egg a piece for a few idlers, more the constitution was 
 endeavoured to be set on fire. to have been consumed reduced to ashes. Happily a man as

must have been been the laughs raised at the domestic board, by the recollection 
of that aerial voyage, havoc rubs and 
scratches got received in the course of it.
