Go on, Prince Phyz! to please the British nation,

Call thy next Masquerade a Convocation.

Bears, Lyons, Wolves, and Elephants I breed,

And Philosophical Transactions read.

Next Lodge I'll be Free-Mason, nothing less,

Unless I happen to be F.R.S.

I have a Palate, and (as yet) two Ears,

Fit company for Porters, or for Peers.

Of ev'ry useful knowledge I've a share,

But my top talent is a bill of fare.
