Evidence: | Copied by Frances Burney into her journal letters, from Samuel Hoole, "Aurelia" (1783):
'I stood, a favouring muse, at Burey's side,
To lash unfeeling Wealth and stubborn Pride,
Soft Affectation, insolently vain,
And wild Extravagance with all her sweeping train;
ed her that mdern Hydra to engage,
And point a Harrell to a mad'ning age:
Then bade the moralist, admir'd and prais'd,
Fly from the loud applause her talent raised.' |
