The MORAL.
How Senseless are our Modern Whigish Tools,
Beneath the dignity of British Fools!
With Beef resolv'd, and Fortify'd with Ale,
They sensure Monarch's, and at Senates Rail;
So eagerly to Publick mischief run,
That they prevent the hands, which Loo them on.
Beneath the dignity of British Fools!
With Beef resolv'd, and Fortify'd with Ale,
They sensure Monarch's, and at Senates Rail;
So eagerly to Publick mischief run,
That they prevent the hands, which Loo them on.
O true Machines; and heads devoid of Brains!
Affront that Senate which your rights Maintains!
Thus Ideots Sport with Power, and Flames embrace,
Till smarting Folly glares them in the Face.
