Letters

Swift to Alexander Pope

Novr 26, 1725

[extract]

Drown the World, I am not content with despising it, but I would anger it if I could with safety. I wish there were an Hospital built for it's despisers, where one might act with safety and it need not be a large Building, only I would have it well endowed.
