Wait till the Majesty of DeathB
Invests so mean a browC
Almost a powdered FootmanD
Might dare to touch it nowC
-
Wait till in Everlasting RobesE
That Democrat is dressedF
Then prate about PrefermentF
And Station and the restF
-
Around this quiet CourtierG
Obsequious Angels waitF
Full royal is his RetinueH
Full purple is his stateF
-
A Lord might dare to lift the HatF
To such a Modest ClayI
Since that My Lord the Lord of LordsJ
Receives unblushinglyI
