Written in Ridicule of Certain Poems <br />{of Thomas Warton} Published in 1777. <br /> <br />Wheresoe'er I turn my view, <br />All is strange, yet nothing new; <br />Endless labour all along, <br />Endless labour to be wrong; <br />Phrase that time has flung away, <br />Uncouth words in disarray, <br />Trick'd in antique ruff and bonnet, <br />Ode, and elegy, and sonnet.<br /><br />Samuel Johnson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/lines-28/
