Opis: The Age - Bailey Philip James

Excerpt from The Age: A Colloquial Satire

Critic.

I am.

Friend.

I homewards, too. We "rail" together
Part of the way, at least.

Author.

This brilliant weather
Raises anticipations in my mind
Of country joys delicious in their kind.

Critic.

There's nothing like it for one's health, I find.
Unconquered Kent! I come to thee again -
Famous for cherries, apples, hops, strong men,
And pretty girls, and everything that's good,
And the Martello Towers, and underwood,
And Roman roads, and cricket; Shakspeare's Cliff,
And many other things, I dare say, if
I knew them, but I don't; and so, it ends,
With - famous for good dinners and good friends.

Author.

God speed you both. I fear I've cut the thread,
Like Atropos, of your discoursing, dead.
