[part of an article about pursuing higher thoughts] . . . 
Tho' lofty may be some religious tool,
When mounted upon his own profession,
Those ought to be a scorn and ridicule,
That vindicate an open transgression.
. . . [2 more lines, 1 paragraph]
This is some caution as I guess'd,
In taking some may stir the nest,
But if you know who this is meant,
Shall say that I am innocent.
[signed] Alexander Black.
P.S. 
. . . [1 paragraph]
Yet truth for ever will bear the say,
When prejudice don't creep in the way.
. . . [1 paragraph, N.B. follow.]
