Sir Joshua Praises Michael Angelo: [And counts it courage thus to praise his foe del.] [Is it Politeness del.] 'Tis Christian Mildness when [fools del.] Knaves Praise a Foe; But 'Twould be Madness [that we all must del.] all the World would say, [If All del.] Should Michael Angelo [praising del.] praise Sir Joshua— Christ us'd the Pharisees in a rougher way.
