Critic.—
“All this is fine—and may be true;
But with such truths I’ve nought to do.
I’m sure, sir, I shall say aright,
When I report the great delight
Th’ enraptur’d audience feel to-night;
It is indeed, with no small sorrow,
I cannot your opinions borrow
To fill the columns of to-morrow.
My light critique will be preferr’d,
