Citation | GSSC.777.002 9 Apr 1777:12 (2055) London. . . EPIGRAM spoken extempore, on reading the proclamation for a general fast. What needs a proclamation for a fast? If our law-gives were not in such haste, The business to their hands might still be done, And they of censure might no hazard run; Thro' the expense of armies and a fleet We quickly shall have nothing left to eat. |
