Break Section 1:
[HAMILTON & WASHINGTON]
DThough, in reAviewing the incidents of my admGinistration,
I am unGmconscious of intentional error, I am Dnevertheless
Too sensibleA of my defects not to think it Gprobable that
I may have Gmcommitted many errors.
DI shall also carry Awith me the hope that my Gcountry will
View them with Gmindulgence; And that
DAfter forty-five Ayears of my life Gdedicated to its service with an Gmupright zeal
The Dfaults of incompetent abilities will be
Consigned to Aoblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest
Break Section 2:
DI anticipate with pleasing expectationC that retreat in which I promise myself
To realizeD the sweet enjoyment of partaking,C in the midst of my fellow-citizens,
The Dbenign influence of good laws Under a Cfree government, the ever-favorite object
Of my Gheart, and theD happy reward,C as I trust
Of our Gmutual cares,Bb labors, and dangers.C
One last Dtime
