The Whigs Supplication Or The Scots Hudibras: A Mock Poem In Two Parts (1796) is a satirical work by Samuel Colville. The book is a parody of Samuel Butler's famous work Hudibras and is divided into two parts. The first part of the book is a humorous account of the Whigs, a political party in England, who are depicted as foolish and incompetent. The second part of the book is a parody of Scottish culture and politics, with the Scots being portrayed as ignorant and uncivilized. The book is written in verse and contains numerous puns and wordplays. It is a humorous and entertaining read that provides a unique perspective on the political and cultural landscape of 18th century England and Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
