A Midas, such as one is wont to meet
I met a Midas – one is used to meet
Such churls by hunoreôs in a crowded street
He was abusing some poor poet's toil –
"Vile trash – vile trash – abominably vile!"
Not so severe, good friend! your men of taste
And & pag learning judge in no such haste –
"Sir – 'tis sufficient to to have ears to hear" –
O! – then you are most competent 'tis clear
N. Rev: Gen: 6 184
On a female Tipler
O damn not that a watery tear
Can be a grateful offering here –
For here lies soly Filpot's daughter
Who loved strong beer – but hated water.
