A
MORAL and POLITICAL
LECTURE,
DELIVERED AT
BRISTOL.
BY
OF
Jesus College, Cambridge.
———To calm and guide
The swelling democratic tide
To watch the state's uncertain frame
To baffle Faction's partial aim;
But chiefly with determin'd zeal
To quell the servile Band that kneel
To Freedom's jealous foes;
And lash that Monster, who is daily found
Expert and bold our country's peace to wound,
Yet dreads to handle arms, nor manly counsel knows.
Akenside.
