Authority and Weight may be regained to Government without much Difficulty. There belongs enough of both to the Crown of England. The King said I know your opinion is for Authority in Government. You have said that more than once in the House of Commons. I have heard what you have said there. And then with a very Gracious Smile, making me a Bow to retire. He said. My Lord. I have great Regard and Kindness for you, I am glad I have done something to please you, I shall be glad to show you my Kindness for you upon all Occasions. You have done your part to Me, and to the Publick, in the House of Commons.
