——At first the Tory,

Pompous and prosing in his elbow chair;

And then the doubtful Dizzyite, with suffrage,

And firm belief in rates,—sneaking, like lamb,

Quite patiently, to “school.”

Then Cranbourne Alley,

Sighing for novelty, with woeful back-glance

Made at the Tory benches.

Then the Liberal

Full of strange whims, and reckless as a Rad;
