AN EPILOGUE TO THE TRAGEDY OF CATO.  Acted by the young
gentlemen at the reverend Mr. Warrington's school.
Spoken by Miss Camilla Warrington.
Kind audience, something I have now to say, 
Two heads upon the players and the play:
Two heads!  this language, if unmeetly us'd, 
The parson's daughter stands, I hope, excus'd.
. . . [14 lines]
Now for your actors--little folks we are, 
Who in a vast attempt too greatly dare:
We strive to be in air, in gate, and looks, 
Statesmen and Princes--whom we've seen in books.
. . . [14 more lines]
