Verse satire, French - Translations into English - Early works to 1800

The perjur'd monarch: a satire on the K--g of P--ssia. Translated from the original French by J. W---s. This piece having raised the curiosity of all Europe, has been handed about by the Embassadors of all the courts, and is justly esteemed the soul of satire, as it reprehends vice in the royal character, abstracted from the personage.---The spirit of British freedom runs thro' the whole, tho' written by a Frenchman.
