PATRIOTISM, A MOCK-HEROIC.
CANTO I.

[]
'TWAS Night; the Voice of Jollity was huſh'd,
Doz'd all her Vot'ries, reaſonably fluſh'd;
Song, Argument, Invention, Laughter, Jeſt,
Wit, Bawdry, Criticiſm, ſunk to reſt:
Scandal had empty'd all his Tub on BUTE,
Abuſe of Royalty itſelf was mute.
Sleep in his pleaſing Bands had all things ty'd,
All but the Eyes of diſappointed PRIDE.
[4] She lay revolving in her anxious mind,
How Reſignation had too much reſign'd;
That Places were diſpens'd as others will'd,
Made vacant ſome, and Vacancies were fill'd;
New Stateſmen at the Helm uſurp'd her Trade,
And glibly ſail'd the Ship without her Aid.
Seeking Repoſe from Side to Side ſhe flings,
No Change of Poſture Pauſe of Anguiſh brings.
Each grinding Thought Alleviation ſcorns,
And ſharpens all the Gooſe-down into Thorns.
Forth from the loathed Bed in haſte ſhe flew,
And round her weary'd Limbs her Veſtments threw.
Enwrought with Gold, in Lelac Purple dy'd,
The Velvet cas'd her endleſs Length of Side.
Two calveleſs Bags of Silk then ſtretch'd to ſee
If they could reach from Heel to diſtant Knee.
[5] Next Splay-foot Shoes ſhe to her Inſteps girt,
Shoes which diſdain'd, yet ſtill were doom'd to Dirt;
Her Thigh ſuſtain'd a Sword unknown to War,
And beam'd upon her Breaſt a Silver Star,
Whoſe Rays with magic Influence could warm
Almoſt to Conſequence the languid Form.
Accoutred thus, forth of her Doors ſhe went,
And her dark Viſit was to FACTION bent;
Reſolv'd, like Heav'n-rejected Saul, to try
What Counſel t'other Party might ſupply.
Onward ſhe ſtrides, impatient of Delay,
Flound'ring thro' ev'ry Kennel in her Way;
Save that at Charing-croſs ſhe ſlack'd her Tread,
And thought ſhe ſaw poor Charles without his Head.
Re-haſt'ning on thro' the long Strand ſhe came,
Then paſs'd the Temple, and ador'd its Name;
[6] Now reach'd St. Paul's, and bleſs'd the Lord that there
Tho' He was prais'd, 'twas with unwilling Pray'r.
Next in a grateful Rapture ſtretch'd to Bow,
And heard th' unmuffled Tongue of Night ſtrike Two.
Acknowledging the Omen, ſhe advanc'd,
While ſudden Vigour thro' each Sinew danc'd.
High on a hundred Columns, whoſe dead Weight
Preſſes the ruſtic Baſe in aukward State,
Where hardly they ſuſtain, their Shafts unbent,
The Load of Cornice, and of Pediment
Which rough with Sculpture in ſtrong Emblem clad,
Tells us, That Riches make a City mad;
The pond'rous Manſion-houſe of FACTION ſtands,
Rais'd by o'er-reaching Heads and griping Hands.
[7]
Before the Gate, a Giant fierce and fell,
Stalk'd Oppoſition, dreadful Centinel!
And Who goes there, he cry'd, yourſelf explain;
A Friend, ſhe ſaid, to Denmark, not the Dane.
Her well-known Voice he recollected ſtrait,
Quick every Bolt ſhoots backward on the Gate,
Bolts to endure which never own'd the Pow'r,
But only made to ſerve the preſent Hour,
And yet the very beſt, for Strength and Size,
The Blackſmith's Place and Penſion could deviſe.
Of canker'd Braſs and ruſty Ir'n each Door,
Stood maſſive, ſpirtled thick with human Gore,
Which Popularity for ever draws
From Fools, in Patriot-Rebellion's Cauſe.
Open they burſt, with deſperate Recoil,
The jarring Hinges ſcream for want of Oil,
[8] Loud and diſcordant, as when Civil Rage
Incites two kindred Armies to engage.
Near Ayleſbury firſt caught the horrid Sound,
And echo'd all its Terrors with rebound,
Concord at diſtant Stowe perceiv'd the Yell,
While down her ill-adapted Vizor fell;
Extremeſt Exeter rock'd to the Noiſe,
And aided its hoarſe Thunder with her Voice:
At once her Cyders ſour, and all around
Her Apple-bloſſoms ſtrew the bluſhing Ground.
And now, where yawn'd the Portal rude and vaſt,
To FACTION'S Reſidence the Goddeſs paſt.
Cloſe to the Door, in the firſt Veſtibule,
Sat Clamour, Riot, Inſult, and Miſrule,
Stern Menace, Licence grown to dang'rous ſize,
Reproach, and an Inſinitude of Lyes.
[9]
A thouſand Voices bellow through the Room,
A thouſand Echoes clatter 'gainſt the Dome;
Copious, but unconnected Eloquence,
Words of fierce Import, but of little Senſe;
Not meant to mean, and therefore to appear
More irritative to the vulgar Ear.
There might be heard, 'midſt other piercing Cries,
Liberty! Property! and no Exciſe!
Of Magna Charta the more dreadful Roar;
Prerogative, and arbitrary Pow'r—:
There Habeas-corpus howl'd, from Jail broke looſe,
Slav'ry, and Privilege, and wooden Shoes—
Corruption, Favourites, and no Addreſs—
And uncontroul'd the Licence of the Preſs:
Sounds that all Senſe of Order could eraſe,
But get the Man, who breaks thro' all, a Place.
[10]
Stun'd with the deaf'ning Peal ſhe paſs'd along,
(Yet paſſing would careſs the friendly Throng)
Thro' vaſt Saloons which ſpoke May'r-royal State,
Rich without Taſte, and without Grandeur, great.
Yet here the Chiſſel and the Pencil ſtrove
Beſt to record the Objects of Mob-love.
Tribunes, and Ephori, and Demagogues,
By Men call'd Patriots, but by Gods plain Rogues;
Such as, provided they themſelves grew great,
Had no Objection to ſubvert a State.
Nor wanted here each dirty, dreadful Job,
That Faction perpetrates to pleaſe the Mob.
To pleaſe the Mob, here mighty Strafford bled,
And Laud laid down his venerable head.
To pleaſe the Mob, Byng ſtains the bluſhing Deep,
And Blakeney earns a Peerage in his Sleep.
[11] To pleaſe the Mob, our Fleets their Canvas ſtrain,
And Expeditions hide the wond'ring Main,
The Main more wond'ring wafts us back, alas!
Thin'd from the Wars of Rochfort and St. Cas:
What matter? ſince Defeat our Joy inſpires,
And Caſſel loſt can light a thouſand Fires.
By having pleas'd the Mob, here Cromwell ſtood,
And ſhew'd how private thrives by public Good;
And might have ſhewn us Gulls, if Gulls could ſee,
That Slav'ry tracks th' Abuſe of Liberty.
Confeſs'd at length the Patriot-Tyrant reign'd,
And ſnapt that Freedom Charles had only ſtrain'd.
Hampden was here, in his Eidolon here,
A would-be Tutor to the Royal Heir,
But he himſelf dwells in the Fields of Fame,
Wedded to Liberty's immortal Name.
[12] And here in Tints more recent might be view'd,
Inſtructive Picture of Court Gratitude!
How round their Sov'reign his great Servants ſtand,
While fierce Rebellion gores the bleeding Land;
Faith, Honour, Duty, Loyalty, the Laws,
Urge them, no doubt, to periſh in his Cauſe?
No, but to ſerve with Granville they refuſe;
So great a Crime in Monarchs 'tis, to chuſe!
A hundred other equal Deeds appear,
Nay, half the Engliſh Hiſtory was here.
While, over all the reſt, conſpicuous ſhines
Old Sarah's Legacy in Golden Lines.
Around in leſs Compartments were beſtow'd
Of underling Incendiaries a Crowd,
Such as employ'd the Pulpit or the Preſs,
T' enforce the Doctrines of Licentiouſneſs;
[13] Here Party canoniz'd ſuch Denizens,
Whoſe Ears had paid the Forfeit of their Pens;
And while in all her glaring Daub ſhe paints,
Villains grow Heroes, Scoundrels turn to Saints.
Our Goddeſs midſt the reſt herſelf deſcry'd,
Mix'd with the Leaders of the other Side;
"And, ah! ſhe ſaid, the very Walls can trace,
"How often we change Principles for Place."
END OF CANTO I.

PATRIOTISM, A MOCK-HEROIC.
CANTO II.

[14]
IN the Receſs of ſomething like a Tomb,
Which Architecture, (ſick of Greece and Rome,
And copying what never was at all,)
Is pleas'd to chriſten an Egyptian Hall;
Our Goddeſs, whom She ſought, at length ſurvey'd,
In anti-kingly Majeſty array'd.
Buſy ſhe found Him in this ſolemn place,
At ſolemn Sacrifice, with ſolemn Face.
[15] He but to Commerce ſcorn'd to pour a Pray'r,
No other Deity employ'd his Care;
All other Altars ſtood inconſecrate,
For her's no Offering was too pure or great.
Of ſolid Gold, and of enormous ſize,
Yet not ſo big her Belly as her Eyes,
She ſtood; and ſeem'd as ſhe would hide the Globe
Beneath the Drap'ry of her flowing Robe.
Faſt by, with full Extent of Gullet grac'd,
Her Attribute, the Cormorant, was plac'd.
The Victims He had taken Care to cull,
All without Blemiſh, all of blackeſt Wool,
All newly bought, all newly flay'd alive,
A Decatomb, of Negro Slaves twice five.
[16] He on their reeking Muſcles, red and blue,
Sharp Vinegar, with Salt and Pepper, threw;
They writh with Pain convolv'd. As when to cram
Some Citizen's unfathomable Wem,
The Turtle, riven with his Mail, poor Fiſh!
Perceives himſelf begin to grow a Diſh;
Convuls'd, each undulating Fibre plays
In Waves of Agony a thouſand ways.
So fixt the inextinguiſhable Soul,
That dreſs'd, perhaps he feels thy teeth, K * *.
The Goddeſs, no Confuſion to create,
Impatient as ſhe was, thought fit to wait:
Civilities are ne'er ſo duly paid
To any Folks, as when we want their Aid.
The Ceremony, with Obſervance meek
She 'tended, and when done, began to ſpeak.
[17]
"O Thou! for whom and from whom I was form'd,
"Whoſe Counſel moulded, and whoſe Spirit warm'd,
"To whom originally 'tis I owe
"Theſe purple Honours, which around me glow,
"To Thee I come my Sorrows to impart;
"Reſt ſhuns theſe Eyes, and Care corrodes this Heart:
"Do thou aſſiſt, in this Conjunction nice,
"Me and the Party with thy ſage Advice.
"Thus far, indeed, Succeſs has crown'd our Arms,
"BUTE quits; nor ſhaken with our fierce Alarms,
"For who our Roar and Riot would regard,
"That in his Conſcience ſeeks for his Reward?
"But that the honeſt Fool had fix'd before
"To make his fav'rite Peace, and throw up Pow'r.
"When he like Phineas in the Gap had ſtood,
"To ſave the People, and had ſtaunch'd their Blood,
[18] "He knew how incompatible muſt prove,
"To ſerve them, yet retain their fickle Love.
"While we play'd ſafe, Dupe of Benevolence!
"He ſtop'd the Plague, and at his own Expence,
"For public Quiet, yielding up that Rein
"We quitted, only to reſume again.
"But what are we the better than before?
"Our empty Niches know us all no more;
"Still the State Truncheon flys our eager Graſp,
"And Calumny is at its lateſt Gaſp.
"What to do next! Inſult can do no more,
"Higher than Forty-five it cannot ſoar,
"Where, to full Pitch of ſturdy Vigour grown,
"It fairly gives the Lye home to the T—e:
"Nothing remains which farther we can drive,
"Or Forty-eight comes next to Forty-five.
[19]
"Then ſhall we idly ſit, hand-cuff'd and dumb,
"And let Truth work, and purge away the Scum
"We have fermented? let the Droſs deject,
"Till its clear Boſom ſhall all Heav'n reflect?
"Forbid it Fate! forbid it ev'ry Boaſt
"We've made to ruin, or to rule the Roaſt!
"We muſt and will have All; but how to ſeize,
"To ſpill the Cyder, or cut down the Trees,
"More Suits at Law commence, more Papers write,
"To give more Dinners, and more Gueſts invite,
"Or the deep, fatal Train to touch with Flame,
"And fire all Ayleſbury and Buckingham,
"I come to aſk; thy Counſel be my Guide."
She ſaid, and FACTION to her thus reply'd.
[20]
"To raiſe the Mob by Maſter-Strokes of Art,
"Inflame the Paſſions, and miſlead the Heart,
"Make happy Subjects ſurfeit on their Eaſe,
"Repine at Bleſſings, and grow ſick of Peace,—
"To pour the Multitude which way we liſt,
"And ere they're injur'd, ſet them to reſiſt,
"Halloo them on, to roar with frantic Zeal,
"Againſt Oppreſſions which no Soul can feel,
"Till they deſire to ſpill their deſp'rate Lives,
"For Printers' 'Prentices' Prerogatives;—
"To bid a little River flow along
"The ſole Criterion to know Right from Wrong,
"With ev'ry Laſh of Infamy impel
"The farther Side, becauſe it won't rebel,—
"On all who dare imply we do amiſs,
"Point ready Obloquy's inſulting Hiſs;
[21] "Hold up, in whomſoe'er we diſapprove,
"(And that means all who ſhare their Maſter's Love)
"Virtue or Genius, like th' Athenian Owl,
"To the blunt Peck of ev'ry other Fowl;
"All the Humanity of BUTE to blot,
"And all thy Candour, MANSFIELD, ſink in Scot;—
"Recaſt the Royal Virtues, which before
"The Nation worſhipp'd, and cry down the Ore,
"To teach the People this indulgent Reign,
"With ev'ry Charge of Tyranny to ſtain,
"To ſwallow any Contradiction down,
"In Antonine's mild Look fear Nero's Frown,
"Wreſt his Intention, and diſtort each Fact,
"And lend them Treaſon till they long to act—
"The Prince againſt his Counſellors to move,
"And while we only ſeem to beg, reprove,
[22] "In Terms of Duty wrap each boiſt'rous Deed,
"Kneel while we ſtab, and libel while we plead,
"FACTION has Pow'r; nay, has already done,
"And yet but little of our Courſe we've run,
"Much ſtill remains; and we muſt tug and ſtrive
"Ere the great Days of Anarchy revive:
"A watchful Eye is over all our Game,
"And while it ſeems to wink, but takes its Aim.
"Oh! had but Fate to HALIFAX decreed
"His Seat of Birth on t'other Side the Tweed!
"Had ſome bleak Shire, of Penury the Reign,
"More ſtarv'd than Famine's Prophecy can feign,
"But giv'n him Title, in the gen'ral Ban,
"We with the Country, had o'erwhelm'd the Man;
"There like Enceladus he'd lain oppreſs'd,
"With half an Iſland bearing on his Breaſt.
[23]
"But now, upon ſo high a Baſis plac'd,
"We're forc'd to leave his Merit undefac'd;
"Out of our Reach, and mocking of our Aim,
"The perfect Statue reſts without a Maim.
"But could we hope his Virtues to decry,
"And ſhew them blighted to the People's Eye;
"Would not Iërne all their Bloom renew,
"And call the bluſhing Honours freſh in View?
"Recount, how Lenity to Prudence join'd
"Shone the Reflexion of his Sender's Mind;
"How form'd to win by ev'ry honeſt Art,
"Bleſs'd by each Voice, and Lord of ev'ry Heart;
"Yet, when a Nation preſs'd him to receive
