| | (From Don Juan)
DON JUAN now saw Albion’s earliest beauties, | |
| Thy cliffs, dear Dover, harbor, and hotel; | |
| Thy custom-house, with all its delicate duties; | |
| Thy waiters running mucks at every bell; | |
| Thy packets, all whose passengers are booties | 5 |
| To those who upon land or water dwell; | |
| And last, not least, to strangers uninstructed, | |
| Thy long, long bills, whence nothing is deducted. | | | | |
