Matthew Prior - The Remedy Worse Than The Disease
Work rating: Low

I sent for Ratcliffe, was so ill,
That other doctors gave me over,
He felt my pulse, prescribed his pill,
And I was likely to recover.

But when the wit began to wheeze,
And wine had warm`d the politician,
Cured yesterday of my disease,
I died last night of my physician.
