And looketh both lofty and slavish, a dreariness high-nosed,

As if he had, under the chin been, by worshipful men, chuck’d;

And great Parson Eat-all-stone, who’d swallow any thing surely;

And the Manchester Yeamanry Cavalry, riding down women;

And Alderman Atkins, with Curtis, that big belly-gerent;

And Flower, and Bridges, C. Smith, and the rest of the Bridge Gang;

All cloth’d for the heav’nly occasion in their best Indictments!

And there all the Lottery Contractors,[73] and such like, were also;

And there Mr. Strong-i-th-arm, his Majesty’s Seal Engraver, was also;

And they all who forged, lo! the French Assignats, were there also;
