Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Letter to the Duke of Grafton, With Notes: To Which Is Annexed a Complete Exculpation of M. De La Fayette From the Charges Indecently Urged Against Him by Mr. Burke, in the House of Commons, on the 17th March, 1794 It is matter of surprise, my Lord, to many, and of offence to all, that your Grace should again provoke the suspended indignation of your country, and renounce that obscurity to which the universal and well-founded contempt of the world had consigned you. To recur to pad events, and recall the pitiful measures of an Administration, marked by folly, turpitude, and cowardice, in which the kingdom was dishonoured abroad, and oppressed at home, would be wresting from the historian the painful, but indispensable obligation of recording the foul catalogue, not of crimes dignified by success and justified by necessity, but of innumerable mischiefs bequeathed to your successors, the sad effects of which an interval of twenty years has not been able to efface.
