FOR Orford and for Waldegrave You give much more than me you gave; Which is not fairly to behave, My Murray! Because if a live dog, 't is said, Be worth a Lion fairly sped, A live lord must be worth two dead, My Murray! And if, as the opinion goes, Verse hath a better sale than prose -- Certes, I should have more than those, My Murray! But now this sheet is nearly cramm'd, So, if you will, I shan't be shamm'd, And if you won't, -- you may be damn'd, My Murray. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...JONES'S PRIVATE ARGYMENT by SIDNEY LANIER SUMMER SHIRT SALE by CARL SANDBURG THE PLEASURES OF IMAGINATION: BOOK 3 by MARK AKENSIDE ROBERT E.
