Citation | CJ-B.777.022 27 Mar 1777:42 (44) The following impromptu, occasioned by seeing an inverted picture of the British tyrant. . . Behold the man! who had it in his pow'r, To make an empire tremble and adore! Intoxicate with folly; see his head Plac'd where the meanest of his subjects tread: Like Lucifer, the guilty tyrant fell, He lifts his heel to heav'n but points his head to hell. |
