Social Commentaries

To a Dublin Publisher

by Thomas Sheridan 1687–1738

From The Humorous Poetry of the English Language (ed. James Parton)

Social Commentaries

Faulkner! for once thou hast some judgment shown,
By representing Swift transformed to stone;
For could he thy ingratitude have known,
Astonishment itself the work had done!
