Mackay's hot wrath to Bonynge, direful spring / Of blows unnumbered, heavenly goddess, sing -- / That wrath which hurled to Hellman's office floor / Two heroes, mutually smeared with gore, / Whose hair in handfuls marked the dire debate, / And riven coat-tails testified their hate.

Sing, muse, what first their indignation fired, / What words augmented it, by whom inspired.
