Where lives that grave mortal so strangely supine,
So Senseless and stupidly lazy;
In hearing such Hands himself to confine,
And not like his Brother, grow crazy?
XIV.
To hear such sweet Hands who wou'd not but give,
Or spend the best part of his Rental;
At so charming a Place as Derby to live,
With such Vocal and such Instrumental?
XV.
And this is the Reason your strolling Italians,
(As it happen'd, we know, to'ther Day)
At Derby are treated like Tatter—de Mallions,
When unheard they went weeping away.

N.B. Speedily will be published, a Particular Account of the great Abilities of each of these Famous Singers, wherein will be shewn their Ignorance and Impudence in attempting such Things as Solo and Verse Anthems by Dr. Greene, Boyce, Nares, &c. Oratorio Songs and Chorusses by Mr. Handel, &c., &c., It being well known to every Person who has the least Ear to Music, that they are not capable of decently singing a Bar in any such Compositions. Mr. W—— some time since absolutely discharged them from making Use of any thing but the Old Psalm Tunes. The scandalous Behaviour of D——, and C——, on this occasion shall be particularly pointed out.
