ADDRESSES.

ADDRESS I.

S--W――d, Esq. to the M- s of Hd.

MY LORD,

AS I now have the honour to be,

By man'ging a playhouse a DOUBLE M. P.
In this, my address, I think fit to complain
Of certain encroachments on GREAT Drury Lane;
A third winter playhouse, your lordship well knows,
That I was the first, with success, to oppose;
Yet so many your lordship's permissions, I vow,
They are worse than a third winter theatre now,
There's one of our actors, who, in a great hurry
For manager's sway, took the Circus, in Surry-
The Circus! oh, that is an error of mine,

Those that call it the Circus must now pay a fine.
