Just at this moment came a writer,
Had drawn up all these paragraphs better;
It was in shape of an address,
In substance neither more nor less
Than an apology worth making,
For their disorderly HOUSE-BREAKING...
Accosting them; said he my masters
Here is the sovereign of all plaisters
For your desertion from the senate,
Cost me a good deal of pains to pen it;
The address was read; it was approved;
All made their marks to it as behoved;
The writer thank'd; nor could do less,
They hurry'd it away to the press.
