The U.S. treaty with Tripoli 1796

RE: The U.S. treaty with Tripoli 1796
The second line makes clear that the document was written by or for George III.

Quote:In the name of the most holy and undivided Trinity.

It having pleased the Divine Providence to dispose the hearts of the most serene and most potent Prince George the Third, by the grace of God, king of Great Britain, France, and Ireland, defender of the faith, duke of Brunswick and Lunebourg, arch- treasurer and prince elector of the Holy Roman Empire etc., and of the United States of America, to forget all past misunderstandings and differences that have unhappily interrupted the good correspondence and friendship which they mutually wish to restore,

Looks like the Limeys still believed in holy horseshit. No wonder they lost!
