The waste and worry of malign obstruction,

Or to take arms against the plague of spouters,

And, by mouth-closing, foil them. To rise—to vote—

No more; and, by a vote, to find we end

The boredom and the thousand Warton “blocks”

The Session’s heir to. ’Tis a consummation

Devoutly to be wished. To rise—to vote—

To vote! Perchance to gag. Ay, there’s the rub;

For from that Vote what tyranny may come,

When we have wriggled from Obstruction’s coil
