Tires the sad gallery, lulls the listless Pit.
Tires the sad gallery, lulls the listless Pit.
Byron
Who'll buy!
Who'll buy_?
Fresh fish from Hippocrene! who'll buy? who'll buy? 391
387 _Too much in turtle Bristol's sons delight_,
388 _Too much o'er bowls of Rack prolong the night_.
Your turtle-feeder's verse must needs be flat, 393
Though Bristol bloat him with the verdant fat. 394
502 _First in the ranks illustrious shall be seen_.
First in the oat-fed phalanx shall be seen. 508
511 _As he himself was damned, shall try to damn_.
Damned like the Devil--Devil-like will damn. 517
532 _And grateful to the founder of the feast_,
533 _Declare his landlord can translate, at least_,
And, grateful for the dainties on his plate, 550
Declare his landlord can at least translate. 551
552 _While Kenny's World just suffered to proceed_,
553 _Proclaims the audience very kind indeed_.
While KENNY's "World"--ah! where is KENNY's wit?
-- 570
Tires the sad gallery, lulls the listless Pit. 571
563 _Let Comedy resume her throne again_.
Let Comedy assume her throne again. 581
569 _Where_ GARRICK _trod, and_ KEMBLE _lives to tread_.
Where GARRICK trod, and SIDDONS lives to tread 587
614 _Raise not your scythe, Suppressors of our Vice_.
Whet not your scythe, Suppressors of our Vice. 632
625 _The Arbiter of pleasure and of play_.
Our arbiter of pleasure and of play. 643
661 _And, kinder still, a_ PAGET _for your wife_.
And, kinder still, two PAGETS for your wife. 679
728 _Want your defence, let Pity be your screen_.
Want is your plea, let Pity be your screen. 746
742 _Some stragglers skirmish round their columns still_.
Some stragglers skirmish round the columns still. 760
815 _The spoiler came; and all thy promise fair_
816 _Has sought the grave, to sleep for ever there_.
The Spoiler swept that soaring Lyre away, 834
Which else had sounded an immortal lay.
