But such his mild and smiling sway,

All felt a pleasure to obey;

And 'twas the kitchen's daily toast,

Long may Quæ Genus rule the roast.

Tradesmen did to his worth subscribe,

For bills were paid without a bribe;

And good Sir Jeffery quite content

How the allotted income went,

At no accounts e'er gave a look,

But those which fill'd his Banker's book.
