Poems on Affairs of State | ||
On the Exchequer Bills.
Pray Sir, did you hear of a late Proclamation,To send Paper for Payment quite thro the Nation
Yes, Sir, I have, they're your M---e's Notes,
Tinctur'd and colour'd by our Parliament Votes:
But it is plain on the People to be but a Jest,
They go by the Carrier, and come by the Post.
