To the worthy and independent liverymen of London. Gentlemen and brother citizens, I should be utterly undeserving the distinguished honour you conferred on me by your numerous appearance in my behalf at Guildhall yesterday, were I not thus early to acknowledge it. I beg therefore your acceptance of my unfeigned thanks for the same. ...
