Applaud
 
I would applaud thee to the very echo
That should applaud again.

APPLAUSE.—The applause of a single human being is of great consequence.
        Dr. Johnson, 1780 (Boswell).		  2
        So was that which
From the Alehouse and the inn
  Opening on the narrow street,
Came the loud convivial din,
  Singing and applause of feet.
