Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Remains of Henry Kirke White, of Nottingham, Late of St. John's College, Cambridge, Vol. 1 of 2: With an Account of His Life
While his school-masters were complaining that they could make nothing of him, he discovered what Nature had made him, and wrote satires upon them. These pieces were never shown to any, except his most particu lar friends, who say that they were pointed and severe. They are enumerated in the table of Contents to one of his manuscript volumes, under the title of school-lam poons; but, as was to be expected, he had cut the leaves out and destroyed them.
