Who were thanked by The Man,
All shaven and shorn, all covered with Orders
And all forlorn;
The Dandy of Sixty,
Who bows with a grace, &c., &c.

The Report of Hone’s three Trials is an interesting work, full of curious parodies, of which a detailed account will be given in the Bibliographical Volume of this Collection. But for the present Leigh Hunt, William Hone, George Cruikshank, and George, Regent, and King, must be dismissed, and Thackeray’s burlesque Epitaph will fitly close this chapter.
