[Letter from the master of the Free-School at Beresford's
Bounty, asking why they are advertising for a master, while
he still performs that duty]
. . . surely something must be the matter, . . . it has a
kind of allusion to a line of a good old song, with a very
ancient chorus, to it, "'Tis this and that, and they cannot
tell what;" tho' at present I am not in a singing mood,
because it has a meaning or tendency, that my actions must
have been quite the reverse.
. . . [19 more lines]
