Excerpt from Rustic Rhymes
And thought he could do it, To recall some poet Like Pope or like Byron, And still keep his eye'on A model above him, Whose art might improve him Nor must he be stuffed With conceit or puffed With the vain idea, That the world would see a Beauty in such rhymes As his in these times. That if he should try them In print, none would buy them, When every bookseller Copies of Longfellow, Bryant, and Tennyson, And Waldo Emerson, Displayed in his store, With a number more Of illustrious name, The favorites of fame.
For him to aspire To rank among those, In verse or in prose.
