WELLINGTON WELLKNOWNS.
As an editor bold he was trenchant of old, And his lived, as at birth, D— m Luckie. Though he's* ancient he's tough and the beaux m a huff, Hate to hear the girls dub him a duokie.
As an amateur opera buffer, An Al. performer is he. He made Ministers laugh— he's no duffer— / So they dubbed him. a solemn J.P.
He's a) son of "old Jimmie-' is Doc, And m fashion he's quite a gay killer. His moustaches fill half of this "block," And his pince-nez completes the safe piller.
When he cries "Silence !" all men hush Their clamor and their snuffling-. Ilis voice. of fate doth agitate Those folk who re apt at shuffling.
