without_o vanity_n that_o the_o author_n of_o mack-fleckno_a reflect_v more_o upon_o himself_o then_o i_o where_o he_o make_v fleckno_n commend_v dulness_n and_o choose_v i_o for_o the_o dull_a that_o ever_o write_v and_o repeat_v dull_a dull_a etc._n etc._n over_o and_o over_o indeed_o he_o give_v his_o own_o dullness_n a_o civil_a term_n and_o call_v it_o be_v saturnine_n but_o sure_o he_o go_v a_o little_a too_o far_o in_o call_v i_o the_o dull_a and_o have_v no_o more_o reason_n for_o that_o than_o for_o give_v i_o the_o irish_a name_n of_o mack_n when_o he_o know_v i_o never_o see_v ireland_n till_o i_o be_v three_o and_o twenty_o year_n old_a and_o be_v there_o but_o four_o month_n beside_o as_o i_o have_v hear_v you_o observe_v the_o foundation_n of_o that_o libel_n be_v false_a and_o unnatural_a for_o though_o some_o may_v have_v mistake_v dulness_n for_o wit_n and_o commend_v it_o as_o such_o yet_o no_o man_n ever_o commend_v dullness_n as_o dulness_n have_v he_o stay_v till_o he_o have_v supply_v the_o stage_n with_o more_o new_a humour_n than_o i_o have_v do_v or_o till_o he_o have_v write_v a_o better_a comedy_n than_o epsom_n wells_n or_o the_o virtuoso_fw-la neither_o of_o which_o by_o the_o way_n be_v take_v from_o a_o novel_a or_o steal_v from_o a_o romance_n he_o may_v with_o a_o better_a grace_n and_o more_o authority_n have_v pronounce_v i_o dull_a but_o he_o be_v not_o content_a with_o that_o but_o have_v another_o fling_n at_o i_o for_o playlng_v upon_o the_o lute_n i_o must_v confess_v that_o that_o and_o all_o other_o gentlemanlike_a exercise_n which_o i_o be_v capable_a of_o learning_n my_o father_n be_v at_o the_o charge_n of_o and_o let_v the_o libeler_n make_v his_o best_a of_o it_o i_o hope_v sir_n you_o will_v not_o think_v i_o guilty_a of_o arrogance_n in_o my_o own_o vindication_n especial_o since_o there_o have_v be_v such_o strong_a endeavour_n to_o depress_v i_o and_o by_o those_o who_o have_v least_o reason_n to_o do_v it_o it_o be_v hard_o to_o believe_v that_o the_o suppose_a author_n of_o mack-fleckno_a be_v the_o real_a one_o because_o when_o i_o tax_v he_o with_o it_o he_o deny_v it_o with_o all_o the_o execration_n he_o can_v think_v of_o however_o my_o dullness_n admit_v of_o a_o excuse_n because_o i_o endeavour_v to_o avoid_v it_o all_o i_o can_v but_o have_v i_o be_v base_a

the_o place_n of_o my_o youthful_a education_n i_o have_v not_o that_o reputation_n and_o let_v i_o tell_v he_o he_o know_v the_o contrary_a and_o second_o by_o another_o writer_n who_o without_o

i_o leave_v it_o to_o he_o to_o consider_v whether_o settle_n have_v not_o outdo_v all_o that_o he_o have_v yet_o produce_v in_o poetry_n it_o be_v at_o best_a a_o ungentile_a thing_n in_o his_o
