TO H. C. BUNNER, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Witness my hand (and seal thereto)
Last Line: Witness my hand!
Alternate Author Name(s): Dobson, Austin
Subject(s): Bunner, Henry Cuyler (1855-1896)


WITNESS my hand (and seal thereto):
All ye who wrong by word or sign
This unprotected Muse of mine,
I wish you ... Something else to do!

May all your bills at once fall due!
May She, whose grace you seek, decline!
Witness my hand!

But you, acute, accomplished, true
And candid, who in every line
Discern a spark (or sparks) divine,
Be blessed! There's good in store for You, --
Witness my hand!
