As mists are dispersed by the glad dawn of day.
Punch, November 13, 1841.
A New Sennacherib.
Sir Robert came down on the Corn Laws so bold,
And his backers felt savage, and sorry, and sold;
But the Premier of votes had a majority,
Amounting, in all, to about ninety-three.
As sheep follow the wether, submissive and mean,
That host at the heels of their leader were seen;
