Priest and to spare!"—this was a shot reserved;

I learn this from epistles which begin

Here where the print ends,—see the pen and ink

Of the advocate, the ready at a pinch!—

"My client boasts the clerkly privilege,

Has taken minor orders many enough,

Shows still sufficient chrism upon his pate

To neutralize a blood-stain: presbyter,

Primæ tonsuræ, subdiaconus,

Sacerdos, so he slips from underneath
