Now the Assembly [the Kit-Kat Club] to adjourn prepar'd,
When Bibliopolo from behind appear'd
As well describ'd by th' old Satyrick Bard,
With leering Looks, Bull-fac'd, and Freckled fair,
With two left Legs; and Judas-colour'd [red] Hair,
With Frowzy Pores, that taint the ambient Air.
Sweating and Puffing for a-while he stood.
And then broke forth in this insulting Mood:Without my Stamp in vain your Poets write.
Those only purchase everliving Fame,That in my Miscellany plant their Name.
