A leech’s daughter and a leech herself,

Fish of an arrogance extreme,

Parades in this château, without fear or dread,

The people’s substance and the monarch’s shame.

[47] Clément XIV. et les Jésuites, by M. Crétineau-Joly.

What is clearly conceived is clearly expressed,

And the words to say it come easily.
