Vindication and evasions in a political charge
The speaker rebukes a gentleman for dodging a charge by evasive replies and shifting blame. He asserts the key fact is the accused’s alleged false assurances about Catalans’ preservation, arguing this justifies punishment and flight from justice. He mocks the accused’s retreat and defends a rival gentleman’s character with testimonies of piety and public service.
