Aliusque et idem. <br />(Another and the same). <br /> <br />When Tom to Cambridge first was sent, <br />A plain brown bob he wore; <br />Read much, and look'd as though he meant <br />To be a fop no more. <br /> <br />See him to Lincoln's-Inn repair, <br />His resolution flag; <br />He cherishes a length of hair, <br />And tucks it in a bag. <br /> <br />Nor Coke nor Salkeld he regards, <br />But gets into the House, <br />And soon a judge's rank rewards <br />His pliant votes and bows. <br /> <br />Adieu, ye bobs! ye bags! give place; <br />Full bottoms come instead; <br />Good L-d! to see the various ways <br />Of dressing-a calf's head!<br /><br />William Shenstone<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/extent-of-cookery/
