Such is their loyalty and sense, the Irish have not risen.
Gentlemen of the Commons:—
You, without surprise, will note
That certain Estimates you will be duly asked to vote.
From saying, though, that they’ve been framed with a sincere regard
For thrift and for economy, I am, perforce, debarred;
For it is certain they’ve been framed upon a lavish scale,
That Tory candidates may still at Dockyard towns prevail;
That Ministers may, in effect, still foster with a bribe
Their infamous alliance with St. Jingo’s yelling tribe;
