Philadelphia, June 29. . . [21 lines describing how the King
was deceived into replacing pointed lightning rods with
round-topped ones]
  While you great George for knowledge hunt,
  And sharp conductors change for blunt,
  The nation's out of joint:
  Franklin the wiser plan pursues, 
  And all your thunder harmless views,
  By sticking to the point.
