Female revenge: or, the British amazon: exemplified in the life of Boadicia. In Which The British History is concisely traced from Julius Caesar's last Expedition into this Island, to the Time of the general Revolt from the Roman Yoke under the Reign of Queen Boadicia; with an Account of the Bloody Massacre on that Occasion. The Propriety of Boadicia's Character, as represented by the Poet critically examined; with cursory Remarks on the other Persons of the Drama. Observations on the Diction, Sentiments, and Conduct of the Play. Its Beauties and Blemishes pointed out, and its Merits and Demerits freely discussed. Calculated to instruct the readers of this celebrated tragedy, in the true History of one of the most memorable Transactions recorded in the British Annals; and to shew wherein poetical fiction has deviated from real facts.
