Halaman 249 - Repines that foreigners are put upon her, And talks of her antiquity and honour ; Her Sackvilles, Saviles, Capels, De la Meres, Mohuns, and Montagues, Darcys, and Veres, Not one have English names, yet all are English peers. Your Hermans, Papillons, and Lavalliers Pass now for true-born English knights and squires, And make good senate members or Lord Mayors. Wealth, howsoever got, in England makes Lords of mechanics, gentlemen of rakes : Antiquity and birth are needless here ; Tis impudence and...
