Miss HANNAH MORE having, with unmerited
severity, nay, illiberality, attacked the poor
poets en masse, alias in a lump, in the following
terms, viz. ‘The poets again, who, to do them justice,
are always ready to lend a helping hand when
any mischief is to be done;’ I have, unlike Miss
Hannah, preserved a Christian spirit on the occasion,
a spirit whiich she every-where so fervently recommends,
and meekly made my complaint in poetical
expostulation, hoping that she will, with the usual
assistance of her good friends the clergy, vouchsafe
me an answer, in some measure to justify the
slander, or expunge it in the next edition of what
are called her Strictures on Female Education
.
