| QUOTATION: | My Lord Tomnoddy is thirty-four; The Earl can last but a few years more. My Lord in the Peers will take his place: Her Majesty’s councils his words will grace. Office he’ll hold and patronage sway; Fortunes and lives he will vote away; And what are his qualifications?—ONE! He’s the Earl of Fitzdotterel’s eldest son. |
| ATTRIBUTION: | My Lord Tomnoddy. |
