In the House of Representatives

In the House of Representatives,
How strangely unfamiliar are the scenes
that meet the gaze
Since the Congressman have started on
their various homeward ways,
A wondrous contrast to the days of yore
you sadly see
AS you climb around the region where the
Speaker used to be.
That picture awful once with rage is now
a peaceful blank;
There's scarce a splinter 1oosened where
the gavel hit the plank.
Where in the olden time remarks were
wont like Goals to burn,
The greatest speech recorded was a motion
to adjourn:
Where once ruflled bird was shrieking
loudly DER the mace
A soft and slumberous silence seemed to
hover round the place:
There Is mildew in the corners and the
cobweb's growing rank,
And there's scarce a splinter loosened
where the gavel hit the plank
