Classic Poem

Pope . Since my old friend is grown so great,
As to be Minister of State,
I'm told (but 'tis not true I hope)
That Craggs will be ashamed of Pope.

Craggs . Alas! if I am such a Creature,
To grow the worse for growing greater;
Why Faith, in spite of all my brags,
'Tis Pope must be asham'd of Craggs.
