Drummond, Warrender, and Smith,
Have serv'd with all their pith,
And claim some small consideration.
Give Hjndford his dragoons,
He'll chastise the Tory loons,
And reform ev'ry part of the nation.
Did ever any prince
His favours thus dispense
On men of no merit nor candour ?
"Would any king confide
In men that so deride
All notions of conscience and honour ?

How these our country sold,
And would sell it again for more treasure 1
Yet, alas ! these very men
Are in favour now again.
And do rule us and ride us at pleasure.
