Expect into office to find a quick way;
While alike born for liberal or aristocrat,
Always sure to come over, a regular rat.
When the premier’s blown out by a party’s foul breath,
The young politician is in at the death.
Grown stale quite us’d up and turn’d out of the stud
Of treasury protégés yet with some blood,
While keen boroughmongers his pedigree trace,
How he made this long speech, how he gained that good place,
And what pensions he won his companions count o’er
