A satirical piece contrasts Amilius the hospitable yet hollow host with a frugal show of economy masking debt and hypocrisy. It follows a broadside letter exclaiming against defamation and urging social responsibility, ending with a witty verse about a sea chaplain’s petition for support from naval officers.
