The lawyer's eloquent address
Which all the world admiring heard
Will now be called – 'Mere emptiness'
And laughs will drown each uttered word.
The nonsense of a titled chief
Like other nonsense will be doest –
And he be called a public thief
Who pilfers from the public chest.
A Deputados faults of grammar
Will all be measured to a tithe
And intrusion's will hammer
Beat down the mighty as the bible
O heaven! for this is worse & worse –
Where shall we seek, when find redress:
How shall we live with this dire curse
This cursed freedom of the press?
What naked truth – & naked folly! –
Heigh ho! it shocks my modest eye –
then Of the three holies – decree let one holy
And Blast the thought the project eternally.
