Though I gave so far into his opinion, that I immediately threw my thoughts into a sort of parliamentary form, I was by no means equally ready to produce them.

Propositions are made, not only ineffectually, but somewhat disreputably, when the minds of men are ambitious of ridicule; not absolutely a candidate for disgrace.
