Oh seeing Mr. and Mrs. BARRY, in the Characters of Othello and Desdemona

Thou great in action in a just degree, Othello, Barry, Shakespeare meant for thee; For thee alone he wisely drew the part, To charm the soul, and melt the frozen heart. In lovely Desdemona's tender strain, Thy consort there does equal honor claim; She shines transcendently through all the part, The throng she charms, and rends the critic's heart; O! may such merit ever grace the stage, And rest distinguish'd in its latter age.
