That having met their final doom,

They may have rest, we—elbow room.[91]

Say that the deepest politicians

Will join their powers with us physicians;

Assist to overset the flummery

Of Perkins’ mischief-making mummery,

Nor suffer tractoring rogues to cure

Such sordid shoals of paltry poor,

Of whom it truly may be said,

That they were ten times better dead.
