Extract

As Rhime is a very distinguished ornament of modern poesy, it is an object of reasonable curiosity to inquire by whom, and how early, it has been used. If a few observations on this subject be not unworthy of the attention of the Antiquarian Society, I will beg the savour of your submitting them to its consideration.
