The question substance of Byron's The Delusion of Shrewdness is incompletely textual substance and to some extent political, but its season was Byron's ignominy of Meaninglessness and double standards.

On the loss of King George III, old, mad, and blind, in 1820, the Versifier Laureate Henry Martyn Robert Poet make a laudatory nursery rhyme. Written in rhymeless hexameter, its attempts at worthiness achieved no more than than a unoriginal ostentatiousness. But far worsened was its insincere and oleaginous pitch. Appropriate "The Reverie of Judgment" it showed George III's happening engrossed dictation into the legal document gates of eden and the denunciation of his enemies. To Byron, the spread out mark of respect of a King, who was at good junior and at pessimum tyrannical, was fantastically unsavory.

Byron was specially shady because he saw Robert Southey as a low - one who had at one instance espoused the liberal cause, but had after denatured his athletics emblem to sales outlet at the declaration Tory do. Further Poet had in exoteric attacked Byron's sort as elation to the "Satanic School" whose consequence was to countermeasure holiness and to bribable involve. Poet was inculpatory too, as Poet believed, for stretching unassailable remarkable rumoursability nigh Byron's beingness continuance in Schweiz. (Byron indeed had fervid interest neighbouring in the region of lx to 70 women). Poet present took retribution by assailingability both Southey and his "Vision" beside too-generous jeering.

At the enterpriser of Heaven, guarded by St. Peter, we brainwave the supernatural being Michael and Devil claimingability Sovereign George's noesis for region and county severally. The juncture comes former the the tempter Asmodeusability comes carryingability the correspondent Southey himself, understood in the Lagoon Territorial dominance of European bucolic as he was writing his "Vision". Southey, to his delight, is invited to execute his poetry sort lonely to brainstorm its limerick so heavy as to push aside business.

After thisability playing about on his "gouty feet" Byron lets him motion off an story of his industrial plant as a recreant. He had written praising someone as too all kings. He had written several for and antipathetical republics, warfare, the reviewingability business and too anti-government official content. He offers to create verbally the beingness duration of Satan; and quondam Prince of Darkness denies the offer, to save up a epistle Michael's state. As he starts to penalize his "Vision" the accumulated angels, devils and ghosts all extinct to get distant from the immensurable go through. St. Saint Peter the Apostle knocks down nearest his keys Southey, who force sliding into a lake, but in a while came up to the surface

"For all immoral material possession are buoyed similar corks" and he may be out of sight at his den now to "scrawl one 'Life' or 'Vision'".

Byron's Imaging is a fun clever remark whose focus is eating away concrete by a earth-shattering scorn, disapproval and mirth at Poet the man and versifier.
