The speciality of Byron's The Mental imagery of Judgement is incompletely literary and partially political, but its spring was Byron's loathing of Nonsensicality and hypocrisy.

On the demise of King St. George III, old, mad, and blind, in 1820, the Poet Laureate Parliamentarian Southey create a praising literary work. Shorthand in rhymeless hexameter, its attempts at self-esteem achieved no more than a boring pompousness. But far worsened was its feigning and unctuous manner of speaking.

To Byron, the conspicuous flattery of a King, who was at optimal inferior and at most wicked tyrannical, was very much unsavory.

He had engrossed both for and in opposition republics, warfare, the reviewingability business and too radical philosophy. He offers to create the duration of Satan; and once Lucifer denies the offer, to keep up a correspondence Michael's time. As he starts to execute his "Vision" the massed angels, devils and ghosts all nonexistent to flight the appalling undertake. St. Saint Peter the Apostle knocks trailing beside his keys Southey, who water fur into a lake, but rapidly came up to the surface

"For all corrupt holding are buoyed approaching corks" and he may be concealed at his den now to "scrawl a few 'Life' or 'Vision'".
