To Governor Johnstone, one of the British Commissioners on
his late letters, and offers to bribe certain eminent
characters in America, and threatning afterwards to appeal
to the public.
  When Satan first from heavn's bright region fell,
  And fix'd the gloomy monarchy of hell,
  Sin then was honest; pride led on the tribe;
  No devil receiv'd--no devil propos'd a bribe;
. . . [38 lines signed] Common Sense
