Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Poems: Narrative and Lyrical
If any pleasant measure lead the line, And make faint echo of fair melody That sound and strain is dedicate to thee, And thine the measure; for that thou of all Unto my first and faltering minstrelsy Didst lend most gracious ear; if it befall, As well it may, that all too low and long The harp-string ringeth now, take thou no shame That so I link thy merit with my song, Thou courteous Lady for a noble name, Not the less sheweth beautiful and bright, Though pale the star that gives its letters light.
