to william hayley esq, june 29th 1793 by william cowper - shyama perera lyrics

Loading...

dear architect of fine chateaux in air
worthier to stand for ever, if they could
than any built of stone or yet of wood
for back of royal elephant to bear!

o for permission from the skies to share
much to my own, though little to thy good
with thee (not subject to the jealous mood!)
a partnership of literary ware!

but i am bankrupt now; and doom’d henceforth
to drudge, in descant dry, on others’ lays;
bards, i acknowledge, of unequalled birth!
but what his commentator’s happiest praise?

that he has furnish’d lights for other eyes
which they who need them usе, and then despise
