Excerpt from Prospectus and Specimen of an Intended National Work: Intended to Comprise the Most Interesting Particulars, Relating to King Arthur and His Round Table

And if my Muse can strike a single spark, Why then (as poets say) I'll string my lyre; And then I'll light a great poetic Fire; XI. I'll air them all, and rub down the Round Table, And wash the Canvas clean, and scour the Frames, And put a coat of varnish on the Fable, And try to puzzle out the Dates and Names; Then (as I said before) I'll heave my cable.
