Citation | PG-P.782.031 25 Sep 1782:22 (2728) Earl Shelburne declares for American independence. . . [9 lines, explaining the reverse of opinion] The excuse given for his lordship's change of opinion is not unlike that of the mock doctor in the farce, who, being contradicted by his patient for asserting, that the heart lay at the right, and the liver on the left side, assured him, that the system of the human body had been totally reversed by order of the College of Physicians. |
