Under the kind Examiners’[11] direction
I only write about them in connection
With benefits which the Electric Light
Confers on us; especially at night.
These are my theme, of these my song shall rise.
My lofty head shall swell to strike the skies,[12]
And tears of hopeless love bedew the maiden’s eyes.
Second Invocation to the Muse
Descend, O Muse, from thy divine abode,
