Earl Shelburne declares for American independence. . . [9
lines, explaining the reverse of opinion]  The excuse given
for his lordship's change of opinion is not unlike that of
the mock doctor in the farce, who, being contradicted by his
patient for asserting, that the heart lay at the right, and
the liver on the left side, assured him, that the system of
the human body had been totally reversed by order of the
College of Physicians.
