Julian, in verse, to ease thy wants I write,

Not moved by envy, malice, or by spite,

Or pleased with the empty names of wit and sense,

But merely to supply thy want of pence:

This did inspire my muse, when, out at eel,

She saw her needy secretary reel.

Grieved that a man, so useful to the age,

Should foot it in so mean an equipage;

A crying scandal, that the fees of sense

Should not be able to support the expence
