The Jeweller's Window
famous wit and poet, translator of Aristophanes and contributor to the “AntiJacobin,” which resisted attempts to bring revolutionary fires from France to England at the time of the French Revolution, its chief weapon being wit and of the “Jacobins.” His “Loves of the Triangles” and “The Needy KnifeGrinder” have become famous, the one a parody of Erasmus Darwin’s “Loves of the Plants,” the other of Robert Southey’s pro-revolu-tionary verses.
