Excerpt from The Lily of the Lyn and Other Poems Dear England, Since to thee I send my verse, And shake its flutt'ring leaves before thy wind Of mighty censorship, a cutting blast That withers to the death the immature, But lifts the fuller leaf to higher realms, Deal gently with my song! In darker days Than these in which all knowledge swiftly moves, The light of immortality has shone On great king-poets, happy sons of thine, As surely now its lustrous rays shall fall On him whose classic music thrills thy shores From wave to wave with perfect melodies, Who, singing for the age in which he lives, Has trilled a song of ages from his lips, About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
