On this he did not then explain himself; but when he afterwards came to do business with the Assembly, they appear'd again, the disputes were renewed, and I was as active as ever in the opposition, being the penman, first, of the request to have a communication of the instructions, and then of the remarks upon them, which may be found in the votes of the time, and in the Historical Review I afterward publish'd. But between us personally no enmity arose; we were often together; he was a man of letters, had seen much of the world, and was very entertaining and pleasing in conversation. He gave me the first information that my old friend Jas. Ralph was still alive; that he was esteem'd one of the best political writers in England; had been employ'd in the dispute between Prince Frederic and the king, and had obtain'd a pension of three hundred a year; that his reputation was indeed small as a poet, Pope having damned his poetry in the Dunciad; but his prose was thought as good as any man's.

白话
当时他没有解释自己；但后来他与议会打交道时，争论又起，富兰克林一如既往积极反对，先起草要求传达指令的请求，再写对指令的评论，这些可见于当时的投票记录和他后来出版的《历史评论》。但他们个人之间没有敌意，常在一起；那人有学问，见多识广，谈话很风趣。他第一次告诉富兰克林，老友拉尔夫还活着，是英国最好的政治作家之一，曾受雇处理弗雷德里克亲王与国王的争端，获得每年三百镑养老金；作为诗人名声确实小，蒲柏在《愚人记》里贬了他的诗，但他的散文被认为不输任何人。
上下文
出自富兰克林自传，讲述他与领主代表在议会争论中既对立又保持私人友谊，并得知老友拉尔夫近况。
