. . . [Response to 2nd Postscript above]
I submit to your readers, whether these lines (borrowed from
an old paper of yours) do not express the temper of the
gentleman, who appears in your late Gazette, and to the very
life resembles AT-ALL in the play; for I must attribute it
either to passion, or want of genius and poverty of
understanding, that he takes such a circle, . . . [4
columns]
  Unthinking man! how coulds't thou hope to please
  A God, a spirit, with such toys as these?
  Are his eyes charm'd thy vestments to behold, 
  Glaring in gems, and gay in woven gold?
. . .
