Excerpt from Attempts in Verse, on Various Subjects
Offspring of Silence and of old Decay, Thou of the moveless form, and evil eye, Upon thy shrine - albeit unwillingly, These my novitiate verses do I lay And reason good such homage I should pay, For they yvere breathed by one Whose youthful flame, The restless night, and day of added pain, Have quenched - for thirty moons their mark and prey Accept, oblivion then, this gift of mine.
