SOME, by their Birth, to Senates lay their Claim,
Whose Folly shames the  which honours
But You, whose Merits mov'd the People's Voice,
Unanimous, to make so wise a Choice,
With solid Sense, and prudent Conduct shew,
You grace the Senate, not the Senate You.
Where, in the List of Patriots, could we find
A sounder  a sincerer
Or where a juster  to poise the Scale
Of  and  Weal?
Nor  you strive to sink, nor  extend;
Bigot to neither Side, to both a Friend.
So flow the Spirits thro' our vital Frame;
Nor yet this Member chill, nor that inflame.
