Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Right Honourable Annuitant Vindicated: With a Word or Two in Favour of the Other Great Man, in Case of His Resignation; In a Letter to a Friend in the Country The Great Commoner has, in my mind, thrown up his employments with the same honour and the same spirit of disinterestedness that he took them up. He has retired with only a new dignity annexed to his family, and an Annuity, so small, so very inconsiderable and inadequate to the purposes of luxury and corruption, that he has been obliged to set his Coach Horses to sale by publick Advertisement. There is nothing so moving, saith Seneca, as a great man in distress. What can be more melancholy than a statesman on the pavee? - Yet has our bright Sun of Patriotism set with no less glory than he rose.
