As every child can tell,
The House of Peers, throughout the war,
Did nothing in particular,
And did it very well:”

That we can call these delicate creatures ours
And not their appetites! I had rather be a toad,
And live upon the vapour of a dungeon
Than keep a corner in the thing I love
For others’ uses.”
