Liberty and law in England and its dangers
A reflective critique on press liberty and legal ignorance. The author argues that zeal for free expression can mislead, risking libel and undue persecution. He laments misapplied laws, cites dissenters and tax burdens, and condemns party revenge in constitutional disputes. He praises a noble figure and defends militia over regulars while urging unity and temper in public defence.

Contempt for militia by standing army cited in remarks
A plain country farmer describes visiting a public house near soldiers stationed in his area. He notes the serjeant and corporal appear competent, and he sometimes shares a drink and pipe with them. His main grievance is the army’s disdain for the militia and the local respectable gentlemen in the neighbourhood.

Modern Cook and the Savory Tart Calamity
A whimsical verse recounts a French bred cook attempting to craft a savory tart. His efforts fail from flawed technique as he bakes, fries, boils, and roasts producing a foul aroma. Frustrated, he abandons the dish declaring all methods doomed. Nature reclaims the result despite his art.
