A True
CHARACTER
OF
Mr. POPE,
AND
His WRITINGS

In a LETTER to a FRIEND.

A Lump Deform’d and Shapeless was he Born, Begot in Love’s Despight, and Nature’s Scorn.

Roch.

Aw’d by no Shame, by no Respect controul’d, In Scandal busie, in Reproaches bold: Spleen to Mankind his environs Heart Possest, And much he hated All, but most the Best.
