The author wrote this in an exchange of epitaphs with David Garrick the British actor. Alice, the Anchovy Schoolmarm

. . . Our Garrick's a salad, for in him we see

That Ridge is an anchovy, and Reynolds is lamb;
That Hickey's a capon, and by the same rule,
Magnanimous Goldsmith, a gooseberry fool. . . .
