That Davies hath a very pretty wife."

We will make one more quotation from this poem, because it describes a class of actors, who are now extinct, and who carried the artificial school to its height:—

"Mossop, attached to military plan,

Still kept his eye fixed on his right-hand man.

Whilst the mouth measures words with seeming skill,

The right hand labours, and the left lies still;

For he resolved on scripture grounds to go,

What the right doth, the left hand shall not know.

With studied impropriety of speech,

He soars beyond the hackney critic's reach;
