To Mr. D'Urfey, upon his incomparable Ballads, call'd by him Lyrick Odes.
I
Thou Cur, half French, half English Breed;Thou Mungrel of Parnassus,
To think tall Lines, run up to Seed,
Should ever tamely pass us.
II
Thou write Pindaricks, and be damn'd!Write Epigrams for Cutlers;
None with thy Lyricks can be sham'd,
But Chamber-maids and Butlers.
III
In t'other World expect dry Blows;No Tears can wash thy Stains out;
Horace will pluck thee by the Nose,
And Pindar beat thy Brains out.
