Not I, by Heaven! He being high i'the state. As public character, none dar^s deny Freedom of speech. — A Briton, Sir, am I. MALAGMA. And I another : — FLAGELLUM. Well, Sir; Ihat may be ; And yet in thinking we may not agree. Call P-rc-v-1, for instance, what you will, I must affirm he is the same man still ; Not one jot more than what Fve set him down. In state robes weak, but strong in lawyer's gown, A SATIRICAL POEM. 35 I see you're fix'd ! MALAGMA. FLAGELLUM. Immoveable as rocks. MALAGMA Hav...e you aught more to add ? FLAGELLUM. About the Blocks ? MALAGMA, The Ministry^ I mean ! FLAGELLUM. As you may call 'em. Wellj Blocks or Ministers, I still mu??t maul 'em And as of law so late my muse hath spoken. The thread of my discourse shall not be broken; So come forth, pensive wool-sack, kgal clay ! 36 ALL THE BLOCKS I * Giant refreshed! The lingering law's delay ! The Chancery's dray-cart ! Drone of Lincoln's Inn- The tlght-cork*d bottle of its endless bin I Since vain's the legal search we may pursue : An E-d-n's sapience blunts the keenest screw.
