Modest Proposal to Treat the Sovereign with Duty
The author urges all ranks to resolve their jealousy and remain honest while proposing a modest duty to the Sovereign. He targets a great Grocer, common-council men, and pamphleteers, calling for respect for the sovereign and warning against depicting him with ill design. He notes a Tory ministry as likely to threaten press liberty but argues for decency over unseemly attacks.
