Epigram of Martial, Lib. 8, Ep. 69. Imitated
Epigram of Martial, Lib VII, Ep. 69.
Imitated.
No praise the grutching Rosalinda yields
To bards, till they are in th' Elysian fields.
She says that every modern is a dunce,
Forgetting Homer was a modern once.
Die—Die—she cries—and then I'll deign a smile,
Your servant, Ma'm,—but 'tis not worth my while.
