To the Virtuous Whig Citizens of the State of South-

Friends and Fellow Sufferers, 
[long essay with a number of quotes, viz.]
  Let the uncandid tongue lick absurd pomp;
  And crook the supple hinges of the knee, 
  Where pelf may follow fawning. [signed] Shakespear.
. . . [1 paragraph]
  What stranger breast place, than an heart untainted?
  Thrice is he arm'd, that has his quarrel just, 
  And he but naked, tho' lock'd up in steel, 
  Whose conscience with injustice is corrupted. [signed]
Shakespear.
. . . [5 more columns with brief quotes from Gay, Beaumont,
Anonymous, Chapman, Johnson's Sejanus, and Ben. Johnson's
Volpone.]
