A print of Westminster Hall, by Mosely, from a drawing made by Gravelot,
who died in 1773, bears the following versified inscription:--

"When fools fall out, for ev'ry flaw,
They run horn mad to go to law,
A hedge awry, a wrong plac'd gate,
Will serve to spend a whole estate.
Your case the lawyer says is good,
And justice cannot he withstood;
By tedious process from above,
From office they to office move,
Thro' pleas, demurrers, the dev'l and all,
At length they bring it to the _Hall_;
The dreadful hall by Rufus rais'd,
For lofty Gothick arches prais'd.

"The _first of Term_, the fatal day,
Doth various images convey;
First, from the courts with clam'rous bawl,
The _criers_ their _attornies_ call;
One of the gown discreet and wise,
By _proper_ means his witness tries;
From _Wreathock's_ gang, not right or laws,
H' assures his trembling client's cause.
_This_ gnaws his haudkerchies, whilst _that_
Gives the kind ogling nymph his hat;
Here one in love with choristers,
Minds singing more than law affairs.
A _Serjeant_ limping on behind,
Shews justice lame as well as blind.
To gain new clients some dispute,
Others protract an ancient suit,
Jargon and noise alone prevail,
Whilst sense and reason's sure to fail:
At _Babel_ thus _law terms_ begun,
And now at West----er go on."

At page 24, of the Poem, there is a happy allusion to the permanence or
lasting of a limitation:

"But if the limitation's made
So long as cheating's us'd in trade,
Or vice prevails: 'tis then a fee,
As good as ever need to be:
For tho' 'tis base instead of pure,
Alas it ever will endure."

Upon this passage is the following confirmative note: "Cheating will
always prevail, in defiance of all human laws, for it cannot be avoided,
but so long as contracts be suffered, many offences shall follow
thereby."--(_Doctor and Student_, c. 3.) In buying and sell
