Nebuchadnezzar

.—He was an hirsute king, and, like other brute beasts, ate grass and potatoes, whence the name of potentate (vide Lemon). It is thought by physiologists, that it would greatly conduce to the welfare of the people, if the king of Georgia was turned out to grass before the eeting of every session of Parliament.
