[2 column satirical article signed Zoilus, begun with
quote:]
He stares tremendous with a threat'ning fye,
Like some fierce tyrant in old tapestry
[signed] Pope
Well hast then spoke in Prose--what would adorn my verse,
with thee, I think his name means nothing--yet less, his
learned motto--it is not pointed at a Critick's should--with
innuendoes and entendres smart--but like Narcissus whines
and pines for love.-- often does the Sun while revolving in
daily course behold as dancing and insensible in the
benefits he affords us.
