One asks himself why, without murmur or (juestion, He foregoes all his tastes, and destroys his digestion, For a labor of which the result seems so small. ' The man is ambitious, ' you say. Not at all. He has just sense enough to be fully aware That he never can hope to be Premier, or sharo The renown of a TuUy ; — or even to hold A sul)ordinate office. He is not so bold As to fancy the House for ten minutes would bear With patience his modest opinions to hear. ' But he wants something ! ' " Wh...at ! with twelve thousand a year? What could Government give him would be half so dear To his heart as a walk with a dog and a gun Through his own pheasant woods, or a capital run ? ' No ; but vanity fills out tlie emptiest brain ; The man would ha more than his ncighl)ors, 't is plain ; And tiie drudgery drearily gone through in town Is more than rcj)aid by provincial renown. Enough if some Marchioness, lively and loose, Shall have eyed him with passing complaisance ; the goose, If the Fashion to him open one of its doors.
