I do not know, my Lord, that Nature has been guilty of any inattention to your form and if the had, it would not have concerned me, who look to the' mind as the belt fource of name and title Though, if I had time, and it were to the purpofe, we might find it matter of cui'ious fpeculation to enquire, why the poorefi and mofi' ignoble man on earth, if capricious Nature has placed a hunch upon his back, {hould be honoured with the fame title as your Lordlhip, and without the for malities of a Royal Patent.
