That lay in the House,

That Jack built.

This is THE MAN--all shaven and shorn, All cover'd with Orders--and all forlorn;

Who bows with a grace,

cuirasses, and lace;

Who, to tricksters and fools,

leaves the State and its treasure, And, when Britain's in tears,

sails about at his pleasure, Who spurn'd from his presence

the Friends of his youth,

And now has not one

who will tell him the truth; Who took to his counsels, in evil hour,

The Friends to the Reasons

of lawless Power;

That Jack built.

All cover'd with Orders--

and all forlorn;

who bows with a grace,

And has taste in wigs, collars,

cuirasses, and lace:

"Who, to tricksters and fools,

leaves the state and its treasure, And, when Britain's in tears,

sails about at his pleasure:

Who spurn'd from his presence

the Friends of his youth,

And now' has not one

who will tell him the truth;

Who took to his counsels, in evil hour,

The Friends to the Reasons of law less Power,

This is THE DOCTOR

by name,

From the Land of misrule,

The worthless colleague

of their infamous power:
