Monarchs, to offend I seek not ; but that changes o'er ye lour I also prophecy ! Man will ascend To Truth, and soon unto false glory cease to bend.
Mind is awake, in Hades ; while, on earth, Crowds ask aloud what truthful reverence Mere shew can ask ; demand the proof of worth From Privilege that lolls in indolence While Poverty toils on with pang intense Of bodily hunger ; and proclaim, in ire, Their stern resolve, that throned magnificence The dullard son derives from doltish sire With conque...rors' pomps, late won by murder, shall expire !
LVJII.
He ceased; and Appius, Rome's old lecher vile, With base effrontery uprose to jeer. But indignation burst from regal pile O' th' Pontic king, that whelmed with shame and fear The rude one, and subdued his scoff and sneer : And albeit Nero Mithridates blamed, Yet, on the lewd decemvir fell severe And ireful glances from a host ashamed To call him Roman till he fled forth spirit-maimed !
LIX.
When, lo ! a filthy and obscene baboon Upgrew in Appius' seat ; while kings aghast, Dumb-founded, gazed to see the creature soon Take up the Roman's staff, he, in his haste, Let fall, and mock the pomp of each dynast That there held golden sceptre !
