第77章

One dignity delays for all, One mitred afternoon.

None can avoid this purple, None evade this crown.

Coach it insures, and footmen, Chamber and state and throng;Bells, also, in the village, As we ride grand along.

What dignified attendants, What service when we pause!

How loyally at parting Their hundred hats they raise!

How pomp surpassing ermine, When ****** you and IPresent our meek escutcheon, And claim the rank to die!
