Carlton TerraceA
-
-
Whereas Lord deB
Left his home last SaturdayB
And tho' inquired for round and roundC
Thro' certain purlieus can't be foundC
And whereas none can solve our queriesD
As to where this virtuous Peer isE
Notice is hereby given that allF
May forthwith to inquiring fallF
As once the thing's well set aboutG
No doubt but we shall hunt him outG
-
His Lordship's mind of late they sayH
Hath been in an uneasy wayH
Himself and colleagues not being letI
To climb into the CabinetJ
To settle England's state affairsK
Hath much it seems unsettled theirsK
And chief to this stray PlenipoL
Hath been a most distressing blowM
Already certain to receive aN
Well paid mission to the NevaN
And be the bearer of kind wordsO
To tyrant Nick from Tory LordsP
To fit himself for free discussionQ
His Lordship had been learning RussianQ
And all so natural to him wereR
The accents of the Northern bearS
That while his tones were in your ear youT
Might swear you were in sweet SiberiaN
And still poor Peer to old and youngU
He goes on raving in that tongueU
Tells you how much you would enjoy aN
Trip to DalnodubrovrkoyaT
Talks of such places by the score onV
As OulisflirmchinagoboronV
And swears for he at nothing sticksW
That Russia swarms with RaskolniksW
Tho' one such Nick God knows must beB
A more than ample quantityB
-
Such are the marks by which to knowV
This strayed or stolen PlenipoL
And whosoever brings or sendsW
The unhappy statesman to his friendsW
On Carlton Terrace shall have thanksW
And any paper but the Bank'sW
-
P S Some think the disappearanceW
Of this our diplomatic Peer henceW
Is for the purpose of reviewingX
In person what dear Mig is doingX
So as to 'scape all tell tale lettersW
'Bout Beresford and such abettersW
The only wretches for whose aidY
Letters seem not to have been madeY
