Hilaire Belloc - Epitah on the Politician Himself
Work rating: Medium

Here richly, with ridiculous display, 
The Politician`s corpse was laid away. 
While all of his acquaintance sneered and slanged 
I wept: for I had longed to see him hanged. 


Another on the Same
This, the last ornament among the peers, 
Bribed, bullied, swindled and blackmailed for years: 
But Death`s what even Politicians fail 
To bribe or swindle, bully or blackmail. 


On Another Politician
The Politician, dead and turned to clay, 
Will make a clout to keep the wind away. 
I am not fond of draughts, and yet I doubt 
If I could get myself to touch that clout. 


On Yet Another
Fame to her darling Shifter glory gives; 
And Shifter is immortal while he lives.

Epitah Upon Himself
Lauda tu Ilarion audacem et splendidum, 
Who was always beginning things and never ended `em.
