Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems of the Chase
Who, with yourselves, bring thousands yearly down To glut the cravings of this sharp-set town, Whose trickful tradesmen, farmers, rogues ingrain, Thrive by your wants, and by your losses gain, Scramble who most at Sight your bills shall share; 'take in a hunter,' and the booty's fair!
Be candid, hunters, if, once framed in Greek, Faintly your foreign dialect I speak.
