 | Oculus Britanniae |  |
If size and stature raise a deathless name,
How vast your praise, how bulky is your fame!
Without a rival, sir, the streets you tread,
Thou greatest, wittiest man, now Tadloe's dead;
Since that huge atlas fell, you reap alone
The thanks of all the paviers in the town.
How vast your praise, how bulky is your fame!
Without a rival, sir, the streets you tread,
Thou greatest, wittiest man, now Tadloe's dead;
Since that huge atlas fell, you reap alone
The thanks of all the paviers in the town.
