Excerpt from The Trumpeter of Sackingen
Five years have passed since thou, O joyous song, Went forth as booh sent out to meet thy fate; As simple Trumpeter to charm the throng: But fortune smiled not on thee all too great; The narrow guilds of cold intelligences Were not toward thee friendly inclined, Where form and numbers rule the warmer senses, Is no good place for thee or for thy hind. And from the heights of bellied crinoline Shedded on thee has little favor been.
