ARGUMENT
TO
Book the First.
THE Proposition, the Invocation, and the Inscription. Then the Original of the great Empire of Dulness, and cause of the continuance thereof. The College of the Goddess in the city, with her private Academy for Poets in particular; the Governors of it, and the four Cardinal Virtues. Then the Poem hastes into the midst of things, presenting her, on the evening of a Lord Mayor's day, revolving the long succession of her Sons, and the glories past and to come. She fixes her eye on Bays, to be the Instrument of that great Event which is the Subject of the Poem. He is described pensive among his Books, giving up the Cause, and apprehending the Period of her Empire: After debating whether to betake himself to the Church, or to Gaming, or to Party-writing, he raises an Altar of proper books, and (making first his solemn prayer and declaration) purposes thereon to sacrifice all his unsuccessful writings. As the pile is kindled, the Goddess, beholding the flame from her seat, flies and puts it out, by casting upon it the poem of Thulé. She forthwith reveals herself to him, transports him to her Temple, unfolds her Arts, and initiates him into her Mysteries; then announcing the death of Eusden, the Poet Laureate, anoints him, carries him to Court, and proclaims him Successor.

VII. ADVERTISEMENT Printed in the Journals, 1730.
WHEREAS, upon occasion of certain Pieces relating to the Gentlemen of the Dunciad, some have been willing to suggest, as if they looked upon them as an abuse: we can do no less than own, it is our opinion, that to call these Gentlemen bad authors is no sort of abuse, but a great truth. We cannot alter this opinion without some reason; but we promise to do it in respect to every person who thinks it an injury to be represented as no Wit, or Poet, provided he procures a Certificate of his being really such, from any three of his companions in the Dunciad, or from Mr. Dennis singly, who is esteemed equal to any three of the number.

By virtue of the Authority in Us vested by the Act for subjecting Poets to the power of a Licenser, we have revised this piece; where finding the style and appellation of King to have been given to a certain Pretender, Pseudo-Poet, or Phantom, of the name of Tibbald; and apprehending the same may be deemed in some sort a Reflection on Majesty, or at least an insult on that legal Authority which has bestowed on another person the Crown of Poesy: We have ordered the said Pretender, Pseudo-Poet, or Phantom, utterly to vanish and evaporate out of this work: And to declare the said Throne of Poetry from henceforth to be abdicated and vacant, unless duly and lawfully supplied by the Laureate himself. And it is hereby enacted, that no other person do presume to fill the same.

IV. ADVERTISEMENT.
To the First Edition, separate, of
The Fourth Book of the DUNCIAD.
We apprehend it can be deemed no injury to the author of the three first books of the Dunciad, that we publish this Fourth. It was found merely by accident, in taking a survey of the Library of a late eminent nobleman; but in so blotted a condition, and in so many detach'd pieces, as plainly shewed it to be not only incorrect, but unfinished. That the author of the three first books had a design to extend and complete his poem in this manner, appears from the dissertation prefixt to it, where it is said, that the design is more extensive, and that we may expect other episodes to complete it: And from the declaration in the argument to the third book, that the accomplishment of the prophecies therein, would be the theme hereafter of a greater Dunciad. But whether or no he be the author of this, we declare ourselves ignorant. If he be, we are no more to be blamed for the publication of it, than Tucca and Varius for that of the last six books of the Æneid, tho' perhaps inferior to the former.
If any person be possessed of a more perfect copy of this work, or of any other fragments of it, and will communicate them to the publisher, we shall make the next edition more complete: In which, we also promise to insert any Criticisms that shall be published (if at all to the purpose) with the Names of the Authors; or any letters sent us (tho' not to the purpose) shall yet be printed under the title of Epistolæ Obscurorum Virorum; which, together with some others of the same kind formerly laid by for that end, may make no unpleasant addition to the future impressions of this poem.

# The Country Boy/When Davenport's in Silverton

WHEN DAVENPORT’S IN SILVERTON.
(BY JAMES J. MONTAGUE.)
They’re all awake in Silverton, although it’s half past eight, And gapes and yawns betray the fact that is mighty late; The lamp is lit in Wolfard’s store, and Simeral and all The rest are tilted back in chairs, around the stove and wall. Saliva hisses on the hearth, and through the open door Come citizens and cats and dogs until they fill the store; And on the street the whisper runs like magic up and down: “Le’s all go up to Wolfard’s store, f’r Davenport’s in town.”
Without a word the old-time friends from almost everywhere Come dropping in and occupy each cracker box and chair; And though the clock ticks on and on, until it’s nearly ten, They never stir, but hungrily live o’er the past again. The time the dog—of worthless life—was chucked inside a sack And dropped by night in Silver Creek, and came serenely back The time the famous Trombone Band won Silverton renown, Are all discussed, and all enjoyed, when Davenport’s in town.
They do not care in Silverton much for the world outside, They little know this loved friend is honored far and wide, They do not know, nor do they care, what Eastern people say, They only know that Davenport has come to town to-day. And sitting breathless ’round that stove they listen to him tell About the days before he bade old Silverton farewell. To them it matters not at all, if fate may smile or frown, It’s quite enough for Silverton that Davenport’s in town.
# The Country Faith

date unknown, published in the Oxford Book of Victorian Verse (January 1919), page 848.
Here in the country's heart
Where the grass is green,
Life is the same sweet life
As it e'er hath been.
Trust in a God still lives,
And the bell at morn
Floats with a thought of God
O'er the rising corn.
God comes down in the rain,
And the crop grows tall
This is the country faith,
And the best of all.

# The Country Doctor (Carleton)

There's a gathering in the village, that has never been outdone Since the soldiers took their muskets to the war of '61, And a lot of lumber wagons near the church upon the hill, And a crowd of country people, Sunday dressed and very still. Now each window is preempted by a dozen heads or more, Now the spacious pews are crowded from the pulpit to the door; For with coverlet of blackness on his portly figure spread, Lies the grim old country doctor, in a massive oaken bed,
Lies the fierce old country doctor, Lies the kind old country doctor,
Whom the populace considered with a mingled love and dread.
Maybe half the congregation, now of great or little worth, Found this watcher waiting for them, when they came upon the earth; This undecorated soldier, of a hard, unequal strife, Fought in many stubborn battles with the foes that sought their life. In the nighttime or the daytime, he would rally brave and well, Though the summer lark was fifing or the frozen lances fell; Knowing, if he won the battle, they would praise their Maker's name, Knowing, if he lost the battle, then the doctor was to blame.
'Twas the brave old virtuous doctor, 'Twas the good old faulty doctor,
'Twas the faithful country doctor-fighting stoutly all the same.
When so many pined in sickness he had stood so strongly by, Half the people felt a notion that the doctor couldn't die; They must slowly learn the lesson how to live from day to day, And have somehow lost their bearings-now this landmark is away. But perhaps it still is better that his busy life is done; He has seen old views and patients disappearing, one by one; He has learned that Death is master both of science and of art; He has done his duty fairly and has acted out his part.
And the strong old country doctor, And the weak old country doctor.
