Citation | NYWJ.747.003 30 Mar 1747:11 (693) AN EPILOGUE, design'd to be spoken by Mrs. Woffington, in the character of a volunteer. Enter, reading a Gazette. Curse on all cowards, say I! Why bless my eyes-- No, no, it can't be true: This Gazette lies: Our men retreat before a scrub banditti, Who scarce cou'd fright the buff coats of the city! . . . [42 more lines in feminist vein] So shall you fire each hero to his duty, And British rights be sav'd by British beauty. |
