An Essay on Envy and Detraction.
[submitted by Clio]
  Is there a wretch so vile, so base, so low, 
  A slave to envy and detraction too;
  Whose mean malevolence, in dark disguise, 
  The man that never injur'd him belies;
  Whose actions, bad and good, two motives guide, 
  The serpent's malice, and the coxcomb's pride?
[signed] Langhorne.
