Than be thus 'celebrated' in a hurry,

And get 'recited' by an Alma Murray!

"Now hold, my Muse, and strive no more to tell

The public what they all should know full well;

Zeal for true worth has bid me here engage

The host of idiots that infest the age

And spin their meagre prose and verse for hire,

Libelling genius if it dare aspire.

Let harmless Barrie scrawl a Scottish tale

And English ears with 'dialect' assail,
