From the Universal Magazine, for January 1768.
ABUSE OF NAMES OF GREAT RENOWN AMONG THE ANCIENT GREEKS AND
LATINS.
Fortune, alas! how sportest thou on earth!
Fame, thou'rt a wind! a bubble gave thee birth!
Say, where those names which set the world on fire?
Where does the price of Greece and Rome return?
