Then bringing our list to a period, we halt on
The gentlest of anglers and men, Isaak Walton;
Just pause in a hurry
To note old John Murray,
And finally pass on, just glancing at Tonson,
To the typical three, Goldsmith, Boswell, and Johnson.
Did the heads of the rebels above the old Gate
Give a Jacobite grin at a possible fate[140]
That might haply await
The roystering three as they wandered home late?
