Something Odd.
THE fam'd Poets of Greece,
Were but all of a piece,
And pretended the gift of some god;
The Poets, &c.
Yet believe me. their art,
Was at length to import,
Something whimsical clever and odd,
Yet &c.
So with moderns we find,
That this vein of the mind,
Reigns from monarch quite down to the clod.
And tho' palaces strike,
Yet the cottage alike,
Has its pleasure because it is odd.
E'en the Prude in her way,
Cries each fool has his day,
