Richard SAvage, d. 1743, English poet, originally published this poem in 1735 in folio. Its subject is the dispute between Edmund Gibson,
Bishop of London, and Lord Chancellor Talbot concerning the appointment of Dr. Rundle to the see of Gloucester, and the language
was such that Savage was proceeded against in the court of King’s Bench on a charge of obscenity.
