Alternate Author Name(s): Betham, Mary Matilda; Edwards, Matilda B.; Edwards, B. M.
Subject(s): Critics & Criticism
AH! if your eye should ever these lines survey,
Dismiss from thence its penetrating ray:
Let Criticism then her distance keep,
And dreaded Justice then be lulled to sleep:
For, let whatever sentence be their due,
I feel I cannot censure bear from you.
