GG(J.765.032a
7 Nov 1765:31 (136)
From the Pennsylvania Journal, Sept. 5, 1765.
The Stamp Act is an act which, when it takes place, the
evils of it will perhaps be more sensibly felt than at
present can easily be imagines . . . [14 lines] But not to
dwell upon this disagreeable subject any longer, we shall
only recommend to such gentlemen a serious perusal of those
most apposite lines in Addison's Cato:
O Porcius! is there not some chosen curse,
Some hidden thunder in the stores of heaven,
Red with uncommon wrath to blast the man
Who owns his greatness to his country's ruin?
