Note	"According to Dennis ... Pope devised a singular stratagem. He got Lintot to persuade Dennis to print some shrewd though rather brutal remarks upon 'Cato.' Pope then took revenge for Dennis's previous pamphlet upon the 'Essay on criticism' by publishing a savage onslaught on the later pamphlet, called a 'Narrative ... of the strange and deplorable frenzy of Mr. J[ohn] D[ennis]." - Dictionary of national biography.
