Can well-stored mind, and animated face

Call to their lodgings one attorney’s Clerk?

Can honor’s course advance a silent race,

Or flattering prospects open in the dark?

Perhaps neglected in this Court is laid

Some, who with fluent art a speech could fire

Many whose talent, were it only paid,

Might wake to emulate each living liar.

But none before their eyes that ample page,

Rich with its strong marked fees did e’er unrol.
