Caption title.

A satire, in verse, on Sir Carr Scrope.

Cf. Macdonald, Hugh. John Dryden; a bibliography. Oxford, 1939, p. 214-215.

The Lutrrell copy is dated 1679; the poem was probably written in 1677.

The subject of the poem, Robert Julian, is wrongly identified in the BMC as Sir Roger L'Estrange.

Included in his Works (1705) under title "A familiar epistle to Mr. Julian, secretary to the Muses"; also dubiously ascribed to Dryden, whom it libels.
