Verses
Written on seeing a Man with a heavy Load on his Back and
an Oak Leaf in his Hat on the 29th of May
Poor fellow, what is it to you,
Or King, or Restoration?
'Twill make no difference to you,
Whoever rules the nation.
Still must thy back support the load,
Still bend thy back with toil;
Still must thou trudge the self-same road,
While great ones share the spoil.
