Great Boy, thy tragedy and sculptures done,

From press and plates, in fleets do homeward run:

And in ridiculous and humble pride,

Their course in ballad-singers' baskets guide;

Whose greasy twigs do all new beauties take

From the gay shows thy dainty sculptures make.

Thy lines a mess of rhyming nonsense yield,

A senseless tale, with fluttering fustian filled.

No grain of sense does in one line appear;

Thy words big bulks of boisterous bombast bear;
