"Great joy to London now!" says some great fool,
When London had a grand illumination,
Which to that bottle-conjuror, John Bull,
Is of all dreams the first hallucination;
So that the streets of coloured lamps are full,
That sage (said John) surrenders at discretion[HO]His purse, his soul, his sense, and even his nonsense,
To gratify, like a huge moth, this one sense.
