A Star and Garter! Here's a go!

Well, well, no doubt 'twas to be worn meant;

And, as mere personal adornment,

It does look smartish, dontcher know!

All personal adornment's vain,

Held Dr. WATTS, holds dear McDOUGALL;

For dowdy dress and habits frugal

Befit the Democratic strain.

And I'm a Democrat—of course!

The BENJAMIN FRANKLIN of the Peerage!
