[At end of a long discussion "between two citizens":]
I must take the liberty to reply, that I look upon such a
threat as a mere raw-head and bloody bones, which will not
in the end advantage their cause; but, be that as it may, to
speak in the language of the good old song of Chevy-Chace,
"I trust we have within the Realm,
Five hundred menias [?] good as they."
Farewel, sir, I shall torture your patience no longer with
my tiresome and homely discourse; but learn, for the future,
to be charitable to those who differ from you in opinion;
and judge not lest ye be judged.
