EPIGRAM CLXXVIII.
[In formâ pauperis, if a plaintiff plead]
QUOCUNQUE MODO REM.
In formâ pauperis, if a plaintiff plead,
Counsel, 'tis said, must give their aid, unfee'd.
“How then should counsel live?” perhaps you'll ask:—
O! never fear it—that's an easy task:—
Tho' paupers ready-made, Law gratis takes,
'Tis amply reimburs'd, by paupers which it makes!
