Counterpart to: The Secret History of Arlus and Odolphus (1710), whose Tory party name encryption, contrary to what the title page suggests, is not continued. The new names within the story immediately make the Philopatrians [Whigs] appear on the side of the good compared to the opposing Hauteglesians [Tories]. the proposal of a peace with the Impostore [Louis Marlborough] which Epiboulius [Harley] presented the Queen [Anne] was not a serious intervention. The Philopatrians rejected this proposal in the interest of the nation. The result was Queen [Anne] began to assume that Strategomacarius [Marlborough] and Gazophylacius [Godolphin] were promoting this war out of entirely private interest. The story comes without narrative or dramatic design. The argumentative material consists of an outline of coded English. and European party politics of the last century. (English)

Gegenschrift zu: The Secret History of Arlus and Odolphus (1710), deren Tory-parteiliche Namenverschlüsselung anders als das Titelblatt es erwarten läßt, nicht fortgeführt wird. Die neuen Namen lassen die Philopatrians [Whigs] gegenüber den gegnerischen Hauteglesians [Tories] sogleich auf der Seite der Guten erscheinen. Epiboulius [Harley] unterbreitete der Königin [Anne] den Vorschlag eines Friedens mit dem Impostore [Ludwig XIV.] - eine Scheinofferte, die die am Gemeinwohl interessierten Philopatrians ablehnen müssen – ein Vorgang, der die gutmütige Königin glauben machen soll, es betrieben Strategomacarius [Marlborough] und Gazophylacius [Godolphin] den Krieg aus ganz privatem Interesse. Keine besonders narrativen oder dramatischen Partien. Das argumentative Material wird aus einem Abriß verschlüsselter engl. und europäischer Parteipolitik des letzten Jahrhunderts bezogen. (German)
