London, February 29. Perhaps very few Princes in the world
have ever so many virtues, or so much wisdom as his present
majesty King George the third. . . [33 more lines about his
character] He discountenances gaming as much as possible,
hath turned some out of employment for being gamesters,
rebuked some ladies of quality in public for having drums,
and playing cards on Sunday, and will not admit any person
to court, who shall profane that holy day by assemblies or
gaming. . . [5 more lines.]
