The Philobiblian Library, kept by William Prichard, Removed
to Market-Street, opposite Laeticia Court,

Our Senate walls would soon re-echo the flowing eloquence of
a Burke, Chatham or a Richmond.  The Pulpits breathe the

our Stage (where necessary) produce the talents of a
Garrick, Western, or Foote.
