And live at the rate of a fortune a day?
Ah! who'll expose their crimes?
The Times, Sirs, the Times,
The waiter his fee declines:
Tell the landlord from me
Him further I'll see,
Ere again I'll be fleeced at his hostelry.
He came—smiled—and said nothing!—Such is Mr. Punch's short-hand report of the interview granted by the Earl of Clarendon to the Finsbury deputation on the Eastern question.
