DEAR Dick, howe'er it comes into his Head, Believes, as firmly as he does his Creed, That You and I, SIR, are extremely great; Tho' I plain Matt, You Minister of State, One Word from me, without all doubt, he says Wou'd fix his Fortune in some little Place: Thus better than myself, it seems, he knows How far my Interest with my Patron goes, And answering all Objections I can make Still plunges deeper in his dear Mistake. From this wild Fancy, SIR, there may proceed One wilder yet, which I foresee and dread, That

That I, in Fact, a real Interest have, Which to my own Advantage I wou'd save, And with the usual Courtier's Trick intend To serve myself, forgetful of my Friend. To shun this Censure I all Shame lay by, And make my Reason with his Will comply, Hoping for my Excuse 'twill be confest, That of two Evils I have chose the least. So, SIR, with this Epistolary Scroll, Receive the Partner of my inmost Soul, Him you will find in Letters and in Laws Not unexpert; firm to his Countries Cause; Warm in the Glorious Interest you pursue; And, in one Word, a good Man and a true.

FINIS. Printed for BERNARD LINTOTT, at the Cross-Keys, between the two Temple-Gates in Fleet-street. (Price one Penny.)
