Kenrick=, with especial attack upon $Garrick= and Garrick's plays. In <i>Miss in her Teens</i>, he boasts the strange pretense, To satire Coxcombs, while he murders sense." Kenrick is one of the few who criticizes Garrick (p. 21) for playing a low character <i>Abel Drugger</i>r, rather than a king. He yields indirect praise to $Janeton Auretti= by blaming the town for cheering her dance, while neglecting the players: @Yet if Janeton shakes her slender feet@How loud the thunder clatters through the Pit.@ <i>Prologue</i> intended to have been spoken on the Revival of <i>The Distress'd Mother</i>, for the Benefit of $Mr Barry=, but omitted through some misunderstanding.
