“Yet, With All That, No One Dared To Interfere. Burke Had Exhausted All His Eloquence In Trying To Induce The British Government To Fight The Revolutionary Government Of France, But Mr. Pitt, With Characteristic Prudence, Did Not Feel That This Country Was Fit Yet To Embark On Another Arduous And Costly War. It Was For Austria To Take The Initiative; Austria, Whose Fairest Daughter Was Even Now A Dethroned Queen, Imprisoned And Insulted By A Howling Mob; Surely 'twas Not-so Argued Mr. Fox-for The Whole Of England To Take Up Arms, Because One Set Of Frenchmen Chose To Murder Another.”
