Miscellaneous pieces in verse; with cursory theatrical remarks. By P. Lewis, Comedian. To ancient Thespis, the Athenian Sage, We owe the first Foundation of the Stage; Tho' rudely planted, soon the laurell'd Tree, Spread its bright Leaves o'er Greece and Italy; And nurtur'd there by Learning's genial Ray, Gave to the Drama a perpetual Day.
printed for the author, and sold by Mr. Waller, Pater-Noster-Row; T. Jones, in the Strand; and T. Davies, Great Russel-Street, Covent-Garden
