"Love in the suds; a town eclogue. Being the lamentation of Roscius for the loss of his Nyky ... With annotations by the editor; and an appendix, containing queries and answers relative to the personal satisfaction, pretended to have been required of the author of the above eclogue, by the lamentable Roscius" ([2], 31 p.) with special title page.
"When in 1772 Isaac Bickerstaffe was driven from society, Kenrick grossly connected it by allusion with Garrick in a satire entitled 'Love in the suds...' ostensibly edited for an anonymous author. Prefixed is a most impudent letter to Garrick signed 'W.K.' Despite Garrick's attempts to suppress it, five editions of the libel were published during the year, each with additional papers and letters." - Dictionary of national biography.
