Ille Crucem sceleris pretium tulit, Hic Diadema.
Good people of England, ’tis fit you should note
What you get, or may suffer, for bribing a vote;
And for an example we’ll bring to your view
An Irish Lord and a Baronet Jew;
The Jew and my Lord in a similar case—
One pays a great fine, t’other holds a great place:
My Lord is bedeck’d with a Ribbon and Garter,
The Jew is in Jail for two years, lack a quarter.
And now we’ll compare, if you please to allow us,
The Jew in his Jail, with my Lord in the House:
The Jew is surrounded by Felons and Debtors,
And my Lord by some folks who are little their betters.
