Beneath those beams; those yet unfinished towers,

At present echoing with the workman’s clang:

Upon their legs, perchance, for weary hours,

Shall Britain’s future Senators harangue.

Full many a Whig of coldest heart serene,

Shall broach his philosophic nonsense there;

Full many a Tory, born abuse to screen,

Shall waste his humbug on the midnight air.

Some future Duncombe, there, with dauntless breast,

The tyrant of his diocese shall twit;
