Dr Parker : 'To Miss Salusbury'
'[having given the text of Parker's poem 'To Miss Salusbury', Mrs Thrale writes] For a long Time I believed this Conceit original; but it is not - There is an old Greek Epigram on Dercylis only of two Lines which the Doctor has here spun into Length. Vide Anthol: Lib: 7.2 & there is some account of it too in Bouhours'.
