To the gentlemen of Newport. The picture in a late South-
Carolina Gazette, if designed for me, is drawn from the
wrong original; and the true one, tho' of the same name with
me, may, for my knowledge of him, be the priest of Saturn,
or the image that fell down from Jupiter. . . .
He that shall rail against his absent friends,
Or hear them scandaliz'd, and not defends,
Sports with their fame, and speaks whate'er he can,
And only to be thought a witty man.
. . . [2 lines follow, signed] Tillot.
[signed] Geo. Paul.
