On the great encouragement given by English nobility and
gentry to Correggio， Rubens， Reynolds， Gainsborough，
Catalani， Du Crow， and Dilbury Doodle
As the ignorant savage will sell his own wife
For a sword， or a cutlass， a dagger， or knife；
So the taught， savage Englishman， spends his whole fortune
On a smear， or a squall， to destroy picture or tune；
And I call upon Colonel Wardle
To give these rascals a dose of caudle！
