FRIEND
Laments the advice that sour'd a milky queen--
(For "bloody" all enlighten'd men confess
An
antiquated
error of the press:)
Who, rapt by zeal beyond her sex's bounds,
With actual cautery staunch'd the Church's wounds!

The same hungry thoughts and the

same regrets,
Over and over the same truths, again and again
In a heaving ring returning the same regrets.

365
Yet soft by nature, more a dupe than wit,
_Sappho_ can tell you how this man was bit;
This dreaded Sat'rist
_Dennis_
will confess
Foe to his pride, but friend to his distress:
So humble, he has knock'd at _Tibbald's_ door, 370
Has drunk with _Cibber_, nay has rhym'd for _Moore_.
