188224609N.d. Between 1882 (watermark-date in the paper) and 1886 (year of printing). This is an essay concerning parliamentary matters: ""Big as the passing days are with hopes of events/ to come, hard as times are now, and/ troublous as the outlook is, there has seldom passed/ a month in which there is so little/ to say about the proceedings of that ""representative""/ body called Parliament which according to the views/ of some worthy persons is the only instrument/ by means of which the construction of Society/ can be carried out..."" It is especially related to Chamberlin: ""There/ is Mr. Chamberlin's circular to the Boards of Guardians,/ which is as complete an exemplification of/ the helplessness of our present ggovernmental system/ as could be..."" and to Ireland: ""For after all the question England really is/ Shall Ireland separate with civil war or without it/ And for Ireland: ""Shall we be allowed to deal with the Land as we think good?"" Due to many handwritten corrections, there are many variations from the printed version.
