To swell the tempest needful aid denies,

And all a-down the stage in feeble murmur dies.

What man, like Barry, with such pains, can err

In elocution, action, character?

What man could give, if Barry was not here,

Such well-applauded tenderness to Lear?

Who else can speak so very, very fine,

That sense may kindly end with every line?

Some dozen lines, before the ghost is there,

Behold him for the solemn scene prepare.
