And shelters under it each scribbling scamp.

Hola, Sir Hall! Hail Beith! Hail Buchan bland!

See, Dame Corelli takes Hugh Walpole’s hand;

And Dora and Censora hover nigh,

To tempt Sassoon and Read. They cannot buy;

So Bennett weeps, and Beaver heaves a sigh.

Now comes a rabble foul—avert the eyes—

Of arm-chair “patriots” and Lloyd-Georgian spies.

Hurl them from off Parnassus, with a shout—

Even from the Press Club let them be kicked out!
