On Mr. Nash's Present of His Own Picture at Full Length

Immortal Newton never spoke
More truth than here you'll find;
Nor Pope himself e'er penned a joke
More cruel on mankind.

This picture, placed the busts between,
Gives Satire all his strength:
Wisdom and Wit are little seen,
But Folly at full length.
