THE AMENDMENT:  OR A FURTHER APOLOGY FOR PUNNING.
Since all my puns, as some pretend, 
Have not reliev'd my smarting friend;
Since, what affects me more, they say, 
The cause of punning to betray, 
. . . [1 column, ending with these eight lines:]
The philosophic phiz and grig, 
Coupled like minuet and jig, 
Arriv'd, where this with joy regain'd
An ancient birth; but that was pain'd
. . . [4 lines and 1 1/2 columns, signed] D.M.
