Gilbert Vale: "Could the 'Age of Reason' and 'Rights of Man' have been replied to as he replied to Burke we should have never heard these slanders."
William Ware Cotter:
"Let libelers' gall-envenomed tongues
Make bitter every word they speak;
Time will disclose the patriot's wrongs
And blanch with shame the slanderer's cheek."
