Now we have shuffled off that mortal toil

We cease to pause! Here’s the good Pen

That lessens the calamities of life;

For who will suffer the whips and scorns of time,

The writer’s wrongs, the schoolmaster’s contumely?

The fangs of despised Pens, cause of delays

A nuisance in an office, and the spurns

Which patient merit of Pen unworthy takes,

When he himself can his quietus make

By using Thatcher’s? Who would Gillott’s bear,
