Additional quotes by Theodore Hook

When Anacreon would fight, as the poets have said, </br> A reverse he display'd in his vapour, </br> For while all his poems were loaded with lead, </br> His pistols were loaded with paper. For excuses, Anacreon old custom may thank, </br> Such a salvo he should not abuse, </br> For the cartridge, by rule, is always made blank, </br> That is fired away at Reviews.
