oratory of that State in the Senate—M.[aryland] Mr. Smith^
of Baltimore—a red hot flaming Speaker, a good Merct. a
warm Patriot—rather too much fire for a Politician and a

Majestic Majack dwealt, where the illumed minds of
mortals shone so bright as to exclude the rays of light from
Heaven—^where it has been suggested that Dangerous Vice sits
as a minion on a throne, to make the hateful monster aris-tocracy
lose all its proud & surley Features by dressing it in the
garb of Davilla,^ The Deception however is discovered, and
^John Smilie (1741-1812), representative from Pennsylvania 1793-
1795 and 1799-1812.
