Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Works of Lord Byron, Vol. 15: With His Letters and Journals, and His Life
April 6. 1819. You sha'n't make confides of my cantos. The poem will please, if it is lively; if it is stupid, it will fail: but I will have none of your damned cutting and slashing. If you please, you may publish anonymously it will perhaps be better; but I will battle my way against them all, like a porcupine.
