Book Description
Excerpt from Lays and Legends of Ancient Greece Dear Friend, who by Corstorphine's bosky bower, From the shrill strife of wrangling law remote, Reapest the mellow fruits of quiet thought, Receive in Jeffrey's quaint and ivied tower This little book. Though from the grand parade Of printed verdicts thou hast long been free, The man who loved the Muse still found in Thee A judge to value, and a friend to aid. Thou, the nice student of fine-thoughted Keats, Mayst find my rhymes cast in too rough a mould For thy keen sense, fed with essential sweets: If so, speak free; I'll take thy blame for gold, And count their coin for brass, with false fair phrase Who blow the nattering trump before my Lays.
