             SEE him come from far,                           #64
                  And, sick with hopelessness,
            Invoke some kindly star,--
                  I see him come, no less.
                  Is there no sure recess
            Where hunted men may lie?
                  Ye gods, it is too hard!
            I feel his glittering eye,--
                  Defend us from The Bard!

            He knows nor let nor bar:
                  With ever-nearing stress,
            Like Juggernaut his car,
                  I see him onward press;
                  He waves a huge MS.;
            He puts evasion by,
                  He stands--as one on guard,
            And reads--how volubly!--
                  Defend us from The Bard!

            He reads--of Fates that mar,
                  Of Woes beyond redress,
            Of all the Moons that are,
                  Of Maids that never bless,
                  (As one, indeed, might guess);
            Of Vows, of Hopes too high,
                  Of Dolours by the yard
            That none believe (nor buy),--
                  Defend us from The Bard!

                        ENVOY

            Prince Phoebus, all must die,
                  Or well- or evil-starred,
                  Or whole of heart or scarred;
            But why in this way--why?
                  Defend us from The Bard!
