Muse, 'tis enough: at length thy labour ends, And thou shalt live; for Buckingham commends. Let crowds of criticks now my verse assail, Let Dennis write, and nameless numbers rail: This more than pays whole years of thankless pain; Time, health, and fortune, are not lost in vain. Sheffield approves, consenting Phoebus bends, And I and Malice from this hour are friends. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AN EPISTOLARY ESSAY FROM M.G.
