    In pleasing memory of all he stole;
    How here he sipp'd, how there he plunder'd snug,
    And suck'd all o'er like an industrious bug.

Who skim the cream of others' books;
And ruin half an author's graces
By plucking bon-mots from their places.

mode, which some adroitly employ to change, or disguise, all
sorts of speeches or their own composition, or that of other
authors, for their pleasure, or their utility; in such a manner
that it becomes impossible even for the author himself to
recognize his own work, his own genius, and his own style, so
skillfully shall the whole be disguised.
