[Introduction to The Centinel. No. XVII.]
Thus silent rests despised, and scorn'd a name,
Which once had honour, grandeur, strength and fame,
How lov'd, how valu'd once, must charm no more,
No western blessings flow for Britain's shore
. . . [2 more lines, signed]
An anonymous parody on Pope's Elegy.
