Powell, Mary Elizabeth. Dying musician. $1.50. Badger, R: G.
A poem filled with pathos and longing which is the anguish of unrealized happiness. For the musician has loved and suffered:
“Then should thy judgment move
To censure harsh, for having dared to love
(E’en as great Tasso) one above me far
And hopeless of attainment as a star—
My one defense,—even as his—must be
Because I loved, what not to love and see
Was more or less than mortal and than me.”
