A Dialogue
 
POPE
SINCE my old friend is grown so great,
As to be Minister of State,
I ’m told, but ’t is not true, I hope,
That Craggs will be ashamed of Pope.
 
CRAGGS
Alas! if I am such a creature,
        5
To grow the worse for growing greater,
Why, faith, in spite of all my brags,
’T is Pope must be ashamed of Craggs.
