BODY:
'tis grown by the Ill Influences of I know not what Hydroptick Stars almost a general custome amongst us, That no Bargain can be drove, or business concluded between Man and Man, but it must be transacted at some Publick House, This to Persons much concerned in the World must needs be very Injurious, should they always run to Taverns or Ale-houses, where continual sippings, though never so warily would be apt to fly up into their Brains, and render them drowsie and indisposed for business; Whereas having now the opportunity of a Coffee-house, they repair thither, take each Man a dish or two (so far from causing that it cures any dizziness or disturbant Fumes) and so dispatching their business, go out more sprightly about their affairs then before; The like may be said of the Draughts of Lunch which taken in Wine Ale or Beer, most times either destroy or very much mayhem the business of the whole day, whereas if people would be perswaded to play the Good-fellows in this wholesome wakeful Innocent drink, They would find it do no less good to their bodies, and much more promote and advance their business and Imployments.

"From torpid despondency, can come no advantage; it is the frost of the soul, which binds up all its powers, and congeals life in perpetual sterility. He that has no hopes of success, will make no attempts; and where nothing is attempted, nothing can be done."

We must, as you say, drink, and make happen.

'it does not really matter who provides a readership for work in London, as long as it does get a readership from somewhere, even if that is self created by the poets themselves, it is however a little sad that only nine poets can be counted as interesting, my number is a lot higher than that, perhaps my critical/appreciative faculties diminish or i am snooker loopy, i'm not so sure.

Another justification for the festival me thinks.'
