“No,” quoth the Cherub: “George the Third is dead.”
“And who is George the Third?” replied the apostle:
What George? what Third?” “The King of England,” said
The angel. “Well! he won't find kings to jostle
Him on his way; but does he wear his head?
Because the last we saw here had a tustle,
And ne'er would have got into Heaven's good graces,
Had he not flung his head in all our faces.
