As a Peri among the Peers!

O well for the Radical “Reds,”

With their “warnings,” and worry, and jeers!

And the stately Whigs go on

Demanding a moderate Bill.

But O for a prison for Parnell and Dillon,

That the Land-Leaguers’ voice may be still!

Talk, talk, talk,

In thy cold calm tones, O “P.”!

But the tender grace of your style just now
