Excerpt from Verses

H E is not fair, for it were vanity To call a goddess beautiful, and dare To taunt with fairness her sublimity. She is not fair. Whomocks with speech ofgrandeur the broad Of the imperial sun? Who calls the sea A lovely thing, or reckons up its share Ofglory that his doubting mind may see What it is worth, whether to praise or spare His praise? So splendid then is she; She is not fair.
