We have receiv'd a continuation of the remarks on the
Virginia Pindar; but must take the liberty to postpone it,
that we may give room for a piece on the other side of the
question. . . . [2 columns, alternating poetry and prose,
including the following:]
Mr Addison, in his admired Tragedy of Cato, has the very
same expression:
O Portius! is there not some chosen curse,
Some hidden thunder in the stores of heaven,
Red with uncommon wrath, to blast the man
That owes his greatness to his country's ruin?
. . . [2 columns more, with references to Addison's
Rosamond]
