Deny, with loudest imprecations:
They'll throng the court with attestations
"Such honesty—before all men—
None e'er had yet, nor will again!"
Confession make on no pretence,
Save turning round King's evidence;
(I don't suppose, though, aught I say
Will save your neck another day,)
Your noble spirit, never vex it,
But make a sentimental exit!
