My Lords, I will now come to a scene of peculation
of another kind: namely, a peculation by the direct
sale of offices of justice, - by the direct sale of the
successions of families, -by the sale of guardianships,
and trusts, held most sacred among the people of India: by the sale of them, not, as before, to farmers, not,
as you might imagine, to near relations of the families,
but a sale of them to the
unfaithful
servants of those,
families, their own perfidious servants, who had ruined their estates, who, if any balances had accrued
to the government, had been the cause of those debts.

Around she pointed to a spacious cave,
Whose only portal was the keyless wave,[403]
(A hollow archway by the sun unseen,
Save through the billows' glassy veil of green,
In some transparent ocean holiday,
When all the finny people are at play,)
Wiped with her hair the brine from Torquil's eyes,
And clapped her hands with joy at his surprise;
Led him to where the rock appeared to jut,
And form a something like a Triton's hut; 130
For all was darkness for a space, till day,
Through clefts above let in a sobered ray;
As in some old cathedral's glimmering aisle

Thus sadly in their refuge submarine
The vault drew half her shadow from the scene.
