SIR ROBERT WALPOLE | B |

Whilst in each of my schemes you most heartily join'd | C |
And help'd the worst jobs that I ever design'd | D |
In pamphlets in ballads in senate at table | E |
Thy satire was witty thy counsel was able | E |

WILLIAM PULTENEY | F |

Whilst with me you divided both profit and care | G |
And the plunder and glory did equally share | G |
Assur'd of his place if my fat friend should die | H |
The Prince of Wales was not so happy as I | H |

SIR ROBERT WALPOLE | B |

Harry Pelham is now my support and delight | I |
Whom we bubble all day and we joke on at night | I |
His head is well furnish'd his lungs have their merit | J |
I would venture a rope to advance such a spirit | J |

WILLIAM PULTENEY | F |

I too have a Harry more useful than yours | K |
Writes verses like mad and will talk you whole hours | L |
I would bleed by the hatchet or swing by the cord | M |
To see him once more in his robes like a lord | M |

SIR ROBERT WALPOLE | B |
- | |
But what if this quarrel was kindly made up | N |
Would you my dear Willy accept of a sup | N |
If the queen should confess you had long been her choice | O |
And you knew it was I who had spoke in her voice | O |

WILLIAM PULTENEY | F |

Though my Harry's so gay so polite and so civil | E |
You rude as a bear and more proud than the devil | E |
I gladly would drop him and laugh in your ear | P |
At the fools we have made for this last dozen year | Q |
