Acerca de este libro

Esta es una copia digital de un libro que, durante generaciones, se ha conservado en las estanteras de una biblioteca, hasta que Google ha decidido
escanearlo como parte de un proyecto que pretende que sea posible descubrir en lnea libros de todo el mundo.
Ha sobrevivido tantos aos como para que los derechos de autor hayan expirado y el libro pase a ser de dominio pblico. El que un libro sea de
dominio pblico significa que nunca ha estado protegido por derechos de autor, o bien que el perodo legal de estos derechos ya ha expirado. Es
posible que una misma obra sea de dominio pblico en unos pases y, sin embargo, no lo sea en otros. Los libros de dominio pblico son nuestras
puertas hacia el pasado, suponen un patrimonio histrico, cultural y de conocimientos que, a menudo, resulta difcil de descubrir.
Todas las anotaciones, marcas y otras seales en los mrgenes que estn presentes en el volumen original aparecern tambin en este archivo como
testimonio del largo viaje que el libro ha recorrido desde el editor hasta la biblioteca y, finalmente, hasta usted.

Eyes of a Stoick upon the Defamatory Libels that -

have been publih'd againt me. Whatever, Calum


nies they have been willing to apere me with, what
ever fale Reports they have pread of my Peron, I
can eaily forgive thoe little Revenges; and acribe
'em to the Spleen of a provok'd Author, who finds
himelf attack'd in the mot enible part of a Poet, I
mean, in his Writings. -

But I own I was a little urpriz'd at the whimical


Chagrin of certain Readers, who intead of diverting
themelves with this Quarrel of Parnaius, of which
they might have been indifferent Spetators, choe to
make themelves Parties, and rather to take pet with
Fools, than laugh with Men of Sene. 'Twas to
comfort thee People, that I compos'd my ninth Sa
tire ; where I think I have hewn clearly enough,
that without any prejudice eithcr to one's Concience
or the Government, one may think bad Veres bad
Veres, and have full right to be tir'd with readin
a filly Book. But ince thee Gentlemen have poken
of the liberty I have taken of Naming them, as an
Attempt unheard-of, and without Example, and
ince Examples can't well be put into Rhyme; 'tis
proper to ay orie word to inform 'em of a thing of
which they alone wou'd gladly be ignorant, and to
make them know, that in comparion of all my bro
ther Satirits, I have been a Poet of great Mdera
tlOn. - -

To begin with Lucilius the Inventer of Satire ;


what liberty, or rather what licene did he not indulge
in his Works? They were not only Poets and Authors
whom he attack'd, they were People of the firt Qua
lity
-: ,

: t
lity in Rome, and Conular Perons. . However Scipio
and Laius did not judge that Poet (o determind a .
Laug', r as he was) unworthy of their Friendhip; and
probably upon occaion no more refus'd him, than .
they did Terence, their advice on his Writings: They
never thought of epouing the part of Lupus and y
Mllis, whom heridiculd in his Satires, nor imagin'd a
!*! they gave up any part of their own Charater in leav- ?
ing to his Mercy all the Coxcombs of the Nation. . .

' '', , ,, ,, hum Laelius, aut qui . ... )


: Duxit ab opprea meritum Carthagine nomen,
s Ingenio offeni, aut left dolucre Metello
Famove Lupo co-operto veribus? '...

In a word, Lucilius par'd neither the Small not


the Great, and often from the Nobles and the Patri
cians he toop'd to the Lees of the People.
Primores populi arripuit populumg; tributin. :
It may be aid that Lucilius liv'd in a Republick
where thoe ort of liberties might be permitted. Look
then upon Horace, who liv'd under an Emperor in
the beginnings of a Monarchy (the mot dangerous
time in the world to laugh) who is there whom he
has not atiriz'd by name Fabius the great Talker,
Tigellius the Fantatick, Naidienus the Impertinent,
Nomentanus the Debauchee, and whoever came at his
Quill's end. They may anwer that thee are fiti.
tious Namcs: an excellent Anwer indeed! Asif thoe
whom he attack'd were no better known; as if we

% were ignorant; that. Fabius was a Roman. Knight
* who compos'd a Treatie of Law, that Tigellius was
a Muician favourd by Augutus, that Nadienus
; Rutos was a famous Coxcomb in Rome, that Caius
* Nomentanus was one of the mot noted Rakes
* in Italy. Certainly thoe who talk in this manner,
* are not converant with ancient Writers, nor extream
ly, intruted in the affairs of the Court of Aguffus.
Horace is not contented with calling people by their
Names; he eems o afraid they hould be mitaken,
that he gives us even their Sir-names; nay tells us .
the Trade they follow'd, or the Employments they
exercis'd. Oberve for Example how he peaks of
44ffaius Lucus Praetor of Fundi. - -

Linquimus, inani ridentes pramia criba:

We were glad to leave (ays he) the Town of Fundi


of which one Aufidius Lucus was Praetor, but it was not
il without laughing heartily at the folly of this man, who
t having been a Clerk, took upon him the Airs of a Sena
g tor and a Pern of Quality. Could a Man be decrib'd
t more preciely? and would not the Circumtances
T only be ufficient to make him known? Will they ay
t that Aufidius was then dead? Horace peaks of a Voy

[ 43 )
While that Bombaft Poet Alpinus, murder: Memnon
in his Poem, and bemires himelf in his decription of the #
Rhine, I divert my elf in thee Satires, "Tis plain &
from hence, that Apinus liv'd in the time when Ho-3
i race writ thee Satires: and uppoe Apinus was an l.
imaginary Name, cou'd the Author of the Poem of
Memnon be taken for another? Horace, they may in

and would they have a Prince who has o many Qua- wh
lities in common with Augutus, either les diguted #4
than he at bad Books, or more rigorous towards thoe
who blame them *
Let us next examine Perus, who writ in the time
of Nero: He not only Raillies the Works of the
Poets of his days, but attacks the Veres of the Em- t
peror himelf: For all the World knows, and all the im
Court of Nero well knew, that thoe four lines,

hi
which Perus o bitterly ridicules in his firt Satire f
were Nero's own Veres; and yet we have no ac-.
count that Nero (o much a Tyrant as he was) caus'd &
Peritis to be punih'd; Enemy as he was to Rcaon, &
and fond as every one knows of his own Works, he #
was gallant enough to take this Raillery on his Ver.
es, and did not think that the Emperor on this oc
caion hould aert the Chara&ter of the Poet. -

little more repect towards the great Men of his
age; and was contented to prinkle the gall of his
F 2 Satire W
[44]
Satire on thoe of the precedent reign. But as for
the Writers, he never look'd for them further than
his own time. At the very beginning of his Work
you find him in a very bad humor againt all his
cotemporary Scrillers : ask juvenal what oblig'd
him to take up his Pen; he was weary of hearing
the Theide of Codrus, the Oretes of this man, and
| the Telephus of that, and all the Poets (as he clfe
|w where ays) who recited their Veres in the Month
! of Augut, - - - - - * * * ** * *

& Auguto recitantes Men: Poetas, , , ,
So true it is that the right of blaming tad Au
thors, is an ancient Right, pas'd into. a. Cutom, . .
among all the Satirits, and allow'd in all ages.
To come from the Ancients to the Moderns. Reg
nier who is almot the only Satirical Poet we have,
has in truth been a little more dicreet, than the
ret; nevertheles he peaks very frcely of Gallet
the famous Gameter, who paid his Creditors with
Sept and Quatorze, and of the Sieur de Provins who
chang'd his long Cloak into a Doublet, and of Colt
n who run from his houe for fear of repairing it,
and of Pierre de Puis, and many others.
What will my Critics ay to this When they
are ever o little touch'd, they wou'd drive from the
Republick of Letters all the Satirical Poets, as o ma
ny diturbers of the Peace of the Nation. But what
will they ay of Virgil; the wie, the dicreet Virgil?
who in an Eclog where he has nothing to do with

diculous... . . . . . . .. . . . ..

Qgi Bavium non odit, amet tua carmina Moevi. ,


Let them not ay that Bavius and Maevius in this
place are uppos'd names, fince it would be too plain
ly to give the Lye to the learned Servius, who poi
tively declares the contrary. In a word, what would
my Cenors do with Catullus, Martial, and all the
Poets of Antiquity, who have made no more cru
ple in this matter than Virgil: What would they
think of Voiture who had the concience to laugh
at the expence of the renowned Neuf Germain, tho'
equally to be admir'd for the Antiquity of his Beard,
and the Novelty of his Poetry? Will they banih
from Parnais, him, and all the ancient Poets, to
etablih the reputation of Fools and Coxcombs If
o, I hall be very eay in my banihment, and have
the pleaure of very good company. Without Rail
lery, wou'd thee Centlemen really be more wie
than Scipio and Lelius, more delicate than Augutus,
or more cruel than Nero ' But they who are o an
gry at the Critics, how comes it that they are o
merciful to bad Authors? I ee what it is that trou
bles them; they have no mind to be undeceiv'd.
It vexes them to have eriouly admir'd thoe Works,
which my Satires have expos'd to univeral Con
tempt; and to ee themelves condemn'd, to forget
in their old Age, thoe Veres which they got
by heart in their Youth, as Mater-pieces of Wit.
