[George II] Slavery in Miniature: a fable. Apply'd to the most factious people of Great-Britain, 1745. While George and Justice rules our British Isle No Popish Varlets shall our Rights defile. Ere Britain's Peace is broken quite, / Ere Parties meet in deadly Fight; / Ere Blood is spilt and Treasure spent, / Our Crown remov'd or Kingdom rent. / Ye sensless Tribe with Patience hear, / A simple Fable, worth your Ear.
