Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Pasquin and Marforio on the Peace: Being a Discussion, by These Celebrated Statues, at Rome, of the General Conduct of England, but Particularly Pending the Late War, and in Negociating the Present Peace Mr Lord, I Am mistaken, or the celebrated Personages, who here seek your Lordship´s Protection, have a better Title to your Patronage than some that have affixt your Name to Works, which you could not approve of without derogating from the generous Plan you laid down for the Standard of your own Conduct. Your Lordship´s Study has been directed to the Amendment of your Countrymen and Happiness of your Country. A glorious Design! which these Foreigners seem to have no less in View than your Lordship. Nor is it unlikely but they may have taken your Lordship for their Model, in writing to a People sunk in Luxury and Corruption; for we find them varying their Stile with the Subject, and attempting, in Imitation of your Lordship, to sting and tickle in the same Breath. How they have succeeded, I must submit to your Lordship, with this single Apology in their Favour, that they wear a Dress which is not of their own fashioning, and for which their English Taylor only is answerable.
