(Mátyási József): Kis itélet napja, vagy-is Ketskemét városának tizedik júliusi égése
Pesten, 1794. Patzkó Ferentz ny. 30p.
The narrative in poetic form describes the great fire of Pest in 1794, during which about 1,000 houses burned down as a hedge chimney caught fire. The author was a poet and a lawyer. Previously, he worked as the secretary of Count János Fekete of Galanta. Kazinczy despised his poetry, but Csokonai respected him as a friend. He opposed the forced language reform, referring to the abundance of expressive words of the common people.
Contemporary paper.
