10. LINES GIVEN EXTEMPORE

To Doctor Monsey, Physician to Chelsea Hospital, Upon his expressing Surprize that the Scribleriad was not more known and talked of.

Dear doctor, did you ever hear I had
So piqued myself on the Scribleriad,
That every pensioner of Chelsea,
The learning and the wit should well see;
Enough for me if only one see,
But let that one be doctor Monsey.
