Country sojourn and poetic letters to a muse
The narrator recounts a debt-averse tinker’s journey to Hampshire with poet’s entourage Horace, Ovid, and others, to answer critics with epigrams. He visits an old uncle, praises a countess, and meets a transformed Fanny and mother Cybele, amid comic misrecognitions and literary musings.
