I've been trying to figure it out for a while and it keeps me up at night, there's no commentary on this poem online as far as I know.
THE CLOWN'S REPLY
JOHN TROTT was desired by two witty peers To tell them the reason why asses had ears? 'An't please you,' quoth John, 'I'm not given to letters, Nor dare I pretend to know more than my betters; Howe'er, from this time I shall ne'er see your graces, As I hope to be saved! without thinking on asses.'
If you’ve experienced relapses on your path to recovery, that’s okay. Just don’t let those mistakes haunt you forever. Instead, rise up and ask yourself what you’re going to do about it. Learn to grow from your mistakes, don’t let them consume you.
Good people all, of every sort,
Give ear unto my song;
And if you find it wondrous short,--
It cannot hold you long.
In Islington there was a man,
Of whom the world might say
That still a godly race he ran,--
Whene'er he went to pray.
A kind and gentle heart he had,
To comfort friends and foes;
The naked every day he clad,--
When he put on his clothes.
And in that town a dog was found,
As many dogs there be,
Both mongrel, puppy, whelp, and hound,
And curs of low degree.
The dog and man at first were friends;
But when a pique began,
The dog, to gain some private ends,
Went mad, and bit the man.
Around from all the neighboring streets,
The wondering neighbors ran,
And swore the dog had lost his wits
To bite so good a man.
The wound it seemed both sore and sad
To every Christian eye;
And while they swore the dog was mad
They swore the man would die.
But soon a wonder came to light,
That showed the rogues they lied;
The man recovered of the bite,
The dog it was that died.

Hey! I have to write an essay on this man Oliver Goldsmith and how he was a playwright of Comedy of Manners. I already went through a lengthy analysis on this playwright and the genre itself but I am a little dissatisfied with whatever small points I managed to collect. I am running severely out of time and the deadline is near. Can anyone of u around give me brief insights about how to begin or structure my paper with specefic examples. Any little help will be appreciated. Thankyou!
