Songs, Comic, Satyrical, and Sentimental.
By George Alexander Stevens.
For neither pedant nor for prude,
These sonnets took their birth,
But are dish'd up, as pleasant food,
For sons of social mirth.
[signed] Prologue to the songs.
This author being acknowledged to be the greatest master of
the sing-song-art in Europe, must be very acceptable to all
who delight in this kind of sentimental entertainment.
