Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Epistles, Satires, and Epigrams
Tricked out by dainty paper, clad in blue, Marked with some quaint device and lettered too, Like a weak bird, in gaudy plumage dressed, You strive, poor book, to ?utter from your nest, And win attention from the noisy throng.
Will they believe your twitter is a song? Bentley, forsooth, must tell your little all 1, And Smith2 must vend you at the station-stall.
