No wonder then that Yermoloff, or Momonoff,[510]Or Scherbatoff, or any other off
Or on, might dread her Majesty had not room enough
Within her bosom (which was not too tough),
For a new flame; a thought to cast of gloom enough
Along the aspect, whether smooth or rough,
Of him who, in the language of his station,
Then held that "high official situation."
