General noteHalf-title: Decius. Aspiring to be gods, presumptuous angels fall. Aspiring to be angels, men shall humbly crawl.
General note"Attributed, by John Adams, to John Nicholas; but, from a manuscript note in the copy belonging to the Library of Congress, which formerly belonged to John Nicholas, it appears that Dr. James Montgomery is the author of the Letters--the Dedication to the Assembly, only, being written by John Nicholas."--Evans.
