. . . [In account of Parliamentary hearings on Wilkes's
status:]
When a majority in that house becomes a minister's state
engine, to effect the worst of purposes, and to produce such
monstrous and unconstitutional acts, that one cannot help
exclaiming in the language of Shakespear--
"Fie on it! oh fie!
'Tis an unweeded garden, things
Rank and gross in nature possess it merely."
