Close round the hustings press a voteless croud Insulting those who vote, with clamor loud ; J 90 Tumult and riot, hustle friends and foes, Laugh law to scorn, and pluck tame order's nose ; And years must pa^s while wisdom jileads in vain^ Ere rancour dies, and friendship smiles again. So, when the winds tempestuous, cease to sweep The mountain surface of the angry deep. By slow degrees the heaving waves decrease, Then sleep at l^tst ia calm and gentle peace. AOB OF PRirOllTT.. 435 Loan-jobbers.... Britain is nobly serv'd, a varied host Have help'd her much, or much they plainly boast. Some with their heads have mighty matters jo/aw/jW, And some have wrought superioryea^* of hand ; Some with their heels her honors high advance. So Richer skips the rope, and Byrne can dance; Some with their lifs have florid speeches made, And said about it all that can be said. But men of money, these are men indeed Who help her out when she is most in need ; Good, gen'rous souls ; the premier wants a loan To aid the nation's projects or hie own, 21-0 A large round sura, that at some future day Another load of taxes must repay.
