From the London Chronicle.
Three Late Celebrated Letters Versified.
  L--  H---D TO THE L--  M---.
In a late very famous--much talk'd of petition, 
Which came up to the throne, in all humble submission, 
Your Lordship, 'mongst many strange matters in view, 
'Stead of honours conferred, thinks a punishment due
To some former pay-master, much in repute, 
Well-train'd in the service and friendship of Bute:
. . . [12 more lines]
  L-- M--R'S CARD IN ANSWER
The L--  M--r, presents
His best compliments, 
For a letter that came
In search of a name:
. . . [8 more lines, signed] Turner.
  A--N  B-----D'S LETTER TO A LIVERYMAN, 
How much I'm surpriz'd, dear Sir, you can't guess, 
To see what the papers are pleas'd to express;
Little thinking my name would be brought into question, 
Concerning a strange, tho' well grounded suggestion
Set forth in that late very famous petition, 
Which met at St. James's so sly an admission.
. . . [16 more lines, signed] W---  B----d.
