Repr?sentans du peuple, les Grands et le Roi: Spectacle magnifique! Source sacr?e des lois!
The Frenchman, for want of understanding the THING as well as I do, left the eulogium incomplete. I therefore here add four lines, which I request those who publish future editions of the Henriade to insert in continuation of the above eulogium of Voltaire.
Repr?sentans du peuple, que celui-ci ignore, Sont fait ? miracle pour garder son Or! Peuple trop heureux, que le bonheur inonde! L'envie de vos voisins, admir? du monde!

A thorough wet day, the only day the greater part of which I have not spent out of doors since I left home.
We have come round here, instead of going by Newbury in consequence of a promise to Mr. BLOUNT at Uphusband, that I would call on him on my return. We left Uphusband by lamp-light, and, of course, we could see little on our way.
