By all means, with no sort of fear!" Alack,

That well-worn lie is obsolete! Fall back

On still a working pretext—"Hearth and Home,

The Altar, love of England, hate of Rome"—

That 's serviceable lying—that perchance

Had screened you decently: but 'ware advance

By one step more in perspicacity

Of these our dupes! At length they get to see

As through the earlier, this the latter plea—

And find the greed and selfishness at source!
