Excerpt from Madrigali
Behold him, too, in thought or style Not even Burns' or Blake's peer Poor pigmy piping many a mile In rear of Shakespeare.

Excerpt from Madrigali
Proem
To A Correspondent
My favorite poet? I'm afraid
You'll sneer at my selection;
And if "a poet's born, not made,"
It may deserve rejection.
'Tis true his puny stature shows
The lines that he is built on
Much less heroic are than those
That moulded
Milton
I grant you may with Byron's fame
Crush my poor bard's to jelly,
Or dim his rush-light in the flame
That wreathes the name of
Shelley.
Behold him, too, in thought or style
Not even Burns' or Blake's peer -
Poor pigmy piping many a mile
In rear of
Shakespeare.
