Scrawl on till death release us from the strain,

Or Art assume her highest rights again;

Let Henley, to assert his tawdry muse,

Damn other bards by scurrilous reviews,

Feeding with rancour his congenial mind,

Himself the most cantankerous of his kind;

Let Andrew Lang undaunted, take his stand

Beside his favourite bookstalls, secondhand;

Let 'Pseudonyms' appear in yellow pairs,

Let careful Stannard sell her 'Winter' wares,
