LXXXVII.

Here the twelfth canto of our Introduction

Ends. When the body of the Book's begun,

You'll find it of a different construction

From what some people say 't will be when done;

The plan at present 's simply in concoction.

I can't oblige you, reader, to read on;

That's your affair, not mine: a real spirit

Should neither court neglect, nor dread to bear it.
