'A popular preacher in this metropolis, who sometimes amuses himself with tagging rhymes together, has published a composition addressed to a married woman, which he calls, "A clownish poem on the Shunamite, A sinner called to be the Lord's delight, By the despised William Huntington, Both known and trusted now in Paddington". This is followed by a literal direction prefixed by the poet. "To Mistress now at number eight, 'Tis by the new St. Luke's that's built of late, In Old-street end, you'll find the Dame's abode, In Winkworth's-buildings, on the City Road".'
