[In an essay on politics, continuing the debate begun by
Finis, above]
. . . No cry, more tuneable
Was ever hallow'd to, or cheer'd with horn . . . [14 lines
on hunting ]
O! cease, my brothers; your envious snarlings cease!
Be calm'd your wrath, your yelpings hush'd in peace!
Let union reign within the kennel's bounds,
And be, amongst yourselves, good-temper'd hounds;
. . . [8 lines, followed by]
And, O! my friends! our lives shall glide along,
Smooth and melodious, as the huntsman's song;
. . . [2 more lines, signed] Liberty
From the Kennel, May 18
