Bonnell Thornton : Ode on St. Cecilia's day, adapted to the ancient British music, viz. the salt-box, the jews- harp, the marrow-bones and cleaver, the hum-strum or hurdy-gurdy, &c
'Bonnell Thornton had just published a burlesque "Ode on St. Cecilia's day, adapted to the ancient British music, viz. the salt-box, the jews- harp, the marrow-bones and cleaver, the hum-strum or hurdy-gurdy, &c". Johnson praised its humour, and seemed much diverted with it'.
