LEISURE MOMENTS, &c.

IMPERIAL AND ROYAL NONCHALANCE..

THE shameless apathy of the continental Princes, during the greater part of the French revolutionary war, reminds one of a passage in Boileau's admirable LUTRIN, in which the Arch-Satirist, alluding to the imbecile Potentates, (as they are facetiously denominated,) predecessors of LEWIS XIV, puts these words into the mouth of SLOTA:

"Hélas! qu'est devenu ce tems, cet heureux tems,
Où les Rois s'honoroient du nom de fainéans;
S'endormoient sur le trône, et me servant sans honte,
Laissoient leur Sceptre aux mains ou d'un Maire, ou
d'un Comte."

Ah! whither fled these happy times of peace,
When idle Kings, dissolv'd in thoughtless ease,
Resign'd their Sceptres and the toils of State

To Counts, or some inferior Magistrate;
Loll'd on their thrones, devoid of thought or pain,
And, nodding, slumber'd out a lazy reign!

[ocr errors]

A faineant Prince is a political excrescence, and ought to be lopped off-an anomaly in a free

state.
