text_original: Some of Pope's satirical pieces are amongst the finest things he ever did, so far as eloquence and impassioned poetic vituperation and exquisite melody of sound can make a poem fine ; and it is hard when we read one of these masterly satires not to lose, for the time, in our enjoyment of the thoughts, the images, and the words, our just sense of regret that such a master of EngUsh verse should have wasted his best powers on ignoble personal controversy.
