Among them all have I essayed to choose;

Sternly I've put the thought of love aside,

An austere poet "wedded to the Muse."

But now of one small guerdon I am fain

(A poet's solace for the love he lacks)—

That this may qualify me to attain

The married man's relief from income-tax.


Commercial Candour.
