The Works of Lord Byron: Letters and Journals, Volume 2

Lord George Gordon Byron
CHAPTER V.

XXV.

XXVII. >

  “In golden characters, right well designed,
  First on the list appeareth one ‘Junot;’
  Then certain other glorious names we find;
  (Which rhyme compelleth me to place below—­)
  Dull victors! baffled by a vanquished foe,
  Wheedled by conynge tongues of laurels due,
  Stand, worthy of each other, in a row
  Sirs Arthur, Harry, and the dizzard Hew
  Dalrymple, seely wight, sore dupe of ’tother tew.”
