These beg or take a liberty to come
(Friends should be free), and make your house their home;
They know that warmly you their cause espouse,
And come to make their boastings and their bows.
You scorn their manners, you their words mistrust;
But you must hear them, and they know you must.
One plainly sees a friendship firm and true
Between the noble candidate and you;
So humbly begs (and states at large the case),
