KATHERINE
PHILIPS
MONSIEVR
CORNEILLE'S
I.
M.
H.
Herringman
Blew
Anchor
IT
is
very
well
that
you
chid
me
so
much
for
endeavouring
to
express
a
part
of
the
sense
I
have
of
your
obligations
;
for
while
you
go
on
in
conferring
them
beyond
all
possibility
of
acknowledgment
,
it
is
convenient
for
me
to
be
forbidden
to
attempt
it
.
Your
last
generous
concern
for
me
,
in
vindicating
me
from
the
unworthy
usage
I
have
received
at
from
the
Press
,
doth
as
much
transcend
all
your
former
favours
,
as
the
injury
done
me
by
that
Publisher
and
Printer
exceeds
all
the
troubles
that
I
remember
I
ever
had
.
All
I
can
say
to
you
for
it
,
is
,
that
though
you
assert
an
unhappy
,
it
is
yet
a
very
innocent
person
,
and
that
it
is
impossible
for
malice
it self
to
have
printed
those
Rimes
(
you
tell
me
are
gotten
abroad
so
impudently
)
with
so
much
abuse
to
the
things
,
as
the
very
publication
of
them
at
all
,
though
they
had
been
never
so
correct
,
had
been
to
me
;
to
me
(
Sir
)
who
never
writ
any
line
in
my
life
with
an
intention
to
have
it
printed
,
and
who
am
of
my
Lord
's
mind
,
that
said
He danger fear'd than censure less , Nor could he dread a breach like to a Press .
And
who
(
I
think
you
know
)
am
sufficiently
distrustful
of
all
,
that
my
own
want
of
company
and
better
employment
,
or
others
commands
have
seduc'd
me
to
write
,
to
endeavor
rather
that
they
should
never
be
seen
at
all
,
than
that
they
should
be
expos'd
to
the
world
with
such
as
now
they
most
unhappily
are
.
But
is
there
no
retreat
from
the
malice
of
this
World
?
I
thought
a
Rock
and
a
Mountain
might
have
hidden
me
,
and
that
it
had
been
free
for
all
to
spend
their
Solitude
in
what
they
please
,
and
that
our
Rivers
(
though
they
are
babling
)
would
not
have
betray'd
the
follies
of
impertinent
thoughts
upon
their
Banks
;
but
't
is
only
I
who
am
that
unfortunate
person
that
cannot
so
much
as
think
in
private
,
that
must
have
my
imaginations
rifled
and
exposed
to
play
the
Mountebanks
,
and
dance
upon
the
Ropes
to
entertain
all
the
rabble
;
to
undergo
all
the
of
the
Wits
,
and
all
the
severity
of
the
Wise
,
and
to
be
the
sport
of
some
that
can
,
and
some
that
cannot
read
a
Verse
.
This
is
a
most
cruel
accident
,
and
hath
made
so
proportionate
an
impression
upon
me
,
that
really
it
hath
cost
me
a
sharp
fit
of
sickness
since
I
heard
it
,
and
I
believe
would
be
more
fatal
but
that
I
know
what
a
Champion
I
have
in
you
,
and
that
I
am
sure
your
credit
in
the
World
will
gain
me
a
belief
from
all
that
are
knowing
and
civil
,
that
I
am
so
innocent
of
that
wretched
Artifice
of
a
secret
consent
(
of
which
I
am
,
I
fear
,
suspected
)
that
whoever
would
have
brought
me
those
Copies
corrected
and
amended
,
and
a
thousand
pounds
to
have
bought
my
permission
for
their
being
printed
,
should
not
have
obtained
it
.
But
though
there
are
many
things
,
I
believe
,
in
this
wicked
impression
of
those
fancies
,
which
the
ignorance
of
what
occasion'd
them
,
and
the
falseness
of
the
Copies
may
represent
very
ridiculous
and
extravagant
,
yet
I
could
give
some
account
of
them
to
the
severest
and
I
am
sure
they
must
be
more
abus'd
than
I
think
is
possible
(
for
I
have
not
seen
the
Book
,
nor
can
imagine
what
's
in
't
)
before
they
can
be
render'd
otherwise
than
Sir
says
in
his
Epilogue
to
— No bolder thought can tax Those Rimes of blemish to the blushing Sex , As chaste the lines , as harmless is the sense , As the first smiles of infant innocence .
So
that
I
hope
there
will
be
no
need
of
justifying
them
to
Vertue
and
Honour
;
and
I
am
so
little
concern'd
for
the
reputation
of
writing
Sense
,
that
provided
the
World
would
believe
me
innocent
of
any
manner
of
knowledge
,
much
less
connivance
at
this
Publication
,
I
shall
willingly
compound
never
to
trouble
them
with
the
true
Copies
,
as
you
advise
me
to
do
:
which
if
you
still
should
judge
absolutely
necessary
to
the
reparation
of
this
misfortune
,
and
to
general
satisfaction
;
and
that
,
as
you
tell
me
,
all
the
rest
of
my
friends
will
press
me
to
it
,
I
should
yield
to
it
with
the
same
reluctancy
as
I
would
cut
off
a
Limb
to
save
my
Life
.
However
I
hope
you
will
satisfie
all
your
acquaintance
of
my
aversion
to
it
,
and
did
they
know
me
as
well
as
you
do
,
that
Apology
were
very
needless
,
for
I
am
so
far
from
expecting
applause
for
any
thing
I
scribble
,
that
I
can
hardly
expect
pardon
;
and
sometimes
I
think
that
employment
so
far
above
my
reach
,
and
unfit
for
my
Sex
,
that
I
am
going
to
resolve
against
it
for
ever
;
and
could
I
have
recovered
those
fugitive
Papers
that
have
escap'd
my
hands
,
I
had
long
since
made
a
sacrifice
of
them
all
.
The
truth
is
,
I
have
an
incorrigible
inclination
to
that
folly
of
riming
,
and
intending
the
effects
of
that
humour
,
only
for
my
own
amusement
in
a
retir'd
life
;
I
did
not
so
much
resist
it
as
a
wiser
woman
would
have
done
;
but
some
of
my
dearest
friends
having
found
my
Ballads
,
(
for
they
deserve
no
better
name
)
they
made
me
so
much
believe
they
did
not
dislike
them
,
that
I
was
betray'd
to
permit
some
Copies
for
their
divertisement
;
but
this
,
with
so
little
concern
for
them
,
that
I
have
lost
most
of
the
originals
,
and
that
I
suppose
to
be
the
cause
of
my
present
misfortune
;
for
some
infernal
Spirits
or
other
have
catch'd
those
rags
of
Paper
,
and
what
the
careless
blotted
writing
kept
them
from
understanding
,
they
have
supplied
by
conjecture
,
till
they
put
them
into
the
shape
wherein
you
saw
them
,
or
else
I
know
not
which
way
it
is
possible
for
them
to
be
collected
,
or
so
abominably
transcrib'd
as
I
hear
they
are
.
I
believe
also
there
are
some
among
them
that
are
not
mine
,
but
every
way
I
have
so
much
injury
,
and
the
worthy
persons
that
had
the
ill
luck
of
my
converse
,
and
so
their
Names
expos'd
in
this
impression
without
their
leave
,
that
few
things
in
the
power
of
Fortune
could
have
given
me
so
great
a
torment
as
this
most
afflictive
accident
.
I
know
you
Sir
,
so
much
my
friend
,
that
I
need
not
ask
your
pardon
for
making
this
tedious
complaint
;
but
methinks
it
is
a
great
injustice
to
revenge
my self
upon
you
by
this
for
the
wrongs
I
have
received
from
others
;
therefore
I
will
only
tell
you
that
the
sole
advantage
I
have
by
this
cruel
news
,
is
that
it
has
given
me
an
experiment
,
That
no
adversity
can
shake
the
constancy
of
your
friendship
,
and
that
in
the
worst
humour
that
ever
I
was
in
,
I
am
still
