Beard, freckled face, brow—all but breath, I hope!

Come, that 's unfair: myself am somebody,

Yet my pictorial fame 's just potter's work,—

I merely figure on men's drinking-mugs!

I and the Flat-nose, Sophroniskos' son,

Oft make a pair. But what 's this lies below?

His table-book and graver, playwright's tool!

And lo, the sweet psalterion, strung and screwed,

Whereon he tried those le-é-é-é-és

And ke-é-é-é-és and turns and trills,
