Book Description
Excerpt from The Echo and the Poet: With Other Poems I fain would cheer that moment of the day Wherein thy heart may droop, or some sharp pain Of thoughtless wit may cause thee to give up Some h0pe or long-dreamed aspiration. And I would caution thus vouchsafe to shun me Just when thou wilt, but I am not a dog Remember that, nor slave to any law but love's And all the attributes of sweet and gentle love That bears the charm of grace and kindliness. Come, pick to your own choosing, but thy mind Must find some sympathetic chord in mine Ere thou shalt find a truth to suit thine end.
