6 Jany 1803 Letter 3

By [the once illustrious] Earl a minister of former days <add>By the first of his Majesty's peace-makers the Earl</add> of Bute, less fortunate
in his praise than Mr Addington, the praise of Paris
— the most prominent of his atchievements — was shown
for an inscription to his tomb. Two atchievements Acts
and as yet but two — constitute the res gesta atchievements <add>Parliamentary exploits</add> of Lord
Pelham: the Police-Magistrate Super-pensioning Act,
and the Bland-Inspectorship Act. If the time were
come for bespeaking tomb-stones, which of these rival
inscriptions would be Lord Pelhams desire? — Which
of them? Alas! talk not of separation: speak of the
same great design, either without the other would be incompleat.
No: The verses of made not so compleat
a match with Marius'. We have our Grenville Act: —
his fame — yet may memory history — let any thing but the
Statute-book — hand down to posterity the twin statutes — the per nobile
fratrum — the two Pelham Acts.
