Ode To Don Miguel.
What! Miguel, not patriotic! oh, fy!
After so much good teaching 'tis quite a take-in, Sir;
First schooled as you were under Metternich's eye,
And then (as young misses say) "finisht" at Windsor!
I ne'er in my life knew a case that was harder;--
Such feasts as you had when you made us a call!
Three courses each day from his Majesty's larder,--
And now to turn absolute Don after all!!
Some authors, like Bayes, to the style and the matter
