[In long essay addressed to the Earl of Shelburne, the
following metaphor referring to the prosecution of the
American war by the British:] . . . It is kissing the hand
that boxes his ears and proposing to renew the exchange. 
The thought is as servile as the war was wicked, and shews
the last scene of the drama as inconsistent as the first. .
