From intellect to go down into madness,

Which now's reflected in its every phiz,

And every form of goodness and of badness

Return'd before us at the land's expense,

A census true of all its want of sense!

BLOOD HEAT AND FREEZING POINT.

'Tis a bad plan to fight, whatever be

The provocation—just attend to me,

And you'll ne'er rue it;

Although with rage you find your fingers burn,
