Such names as Morton, Reynolds, Dibdin, Cherry.
Morton a melancholy wight, whose muse,
Now sighs and sobs, like newly bottled ale,
Now splits her ugly mouth with grinning.[10]
Reynolds,[11] whose muse most monstrous and misshapen,
Outvies the hideous form that Horace drew.
Dibdin[12] a ballad monger—and for Cherry—
But Cherry has no character at all.
