Ode Upon Ode: Or A Peep At St. James�������s, Or New Year�������s Day, Or What You Will (1789) is a satirical poem written by the English poet and journalist Peter Pindar. The poem is a collection of odes that mock the social and political elite of 18th century England, particularly those associated with the royal court at St. James's Palace. The odes are written in a humorous and irreverent style, poking fun at the pomp and ceremony of the court, as well as the personal foibles of its members. Pindar also takes aim at various political figures of the time, including the Prime Minister and members of Parliament. Despite its satirical nature, Ode Upon Ode is also a commentary on the state of English society at the time, highlighting the corruption and excesses of the ruling class. The poem was widely read and enjoyed in its time, and is still considered a classic of English satire today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
