TRANSPOSITIONS.

LET the reformers descend from the stands where they are forever          bawling—let an idiot or insane person appear on each of          the stands;

Let judges and criminals be transposed—let the prison-keepers be          put in prison—let those that were prisoners take the keys;

Let them that distrust birth and death lead the rest.
