Apollo—To Mr C---F---,
on his being satirized by an ignorant Person.
Whether he's worth your spleen or not,You've ask'd me to determine:
I wish my friend a nobler lot
Than that of trampling vermin.
A blockhead can't be worth our care,
Unless that we'd befriend him:
As you've some common sense to spare,
I'll pay what you may lend him.
