An Epilogue, after a tedious Play

MS Folger, 194* (placed before "Wretched Amintor with a flame," below).

Comment:

Finch has sorely tried someone's "patience" (perhaps Charles and/or other Finch relatives) with this play, and promises not to write in this manner (or mood) again; she pleads "lonely Godmersham th'attempt excuses,/Not sure to be endur'd, without the Muses."
