Bistre and azure by Bessarion's scribe—
Read this line ... no, shame—Homer's be the Greek
First breathed me from the lips of my Greek girl!
This Odyssey in coarse black vivid type
With faded yellow blossoms 'twixt page and page,
To mark great places with due gratitude;
"He said, and on Antinous directed
A bitter shaft" ... a flower blots out the rest!
Again upon your search? My statues, then!
—Ah, do not mind that—better that will look
