With a little hoard of maxims preaching down a daughter's heart.

After-dinner talk/ Across the walnuts and the wine.

Ah God! the petty fools of rhyme/ That shriek and sweat in pigmy wars.

And when they buried him the little port/ Had seldom seen a costlier funeral.

As the many-wintered crow that leads the clanging rookery home.

At Flores in the Azores Sir Richard Grenville lay.

Barbarous experiment, barbarous hexameters.

Cannon to right of them,/ Cannon to left of them,/ Cannon in front of them/ Volleyed and thundered.

Even tho' thrice again/ The red fool-fury of the Seine/ Should pile her barricades with dead.

Fresh from brawling courts/ And dusty purlieus of the law.

Heard the heavens fill with shouting, and there rained a ghastly dew/ From the nations' airy navies grappling in the central blue.

I wind about, and in and out,/ With here a blossom sailing,/ And here and there a lusty trout,/ And here and there a grayling.

Live and lie reclined/ On the hills like Gods together, careless of mankind.

Not the schoolboy heat,/ The blind hysterics of the Celt.

Revolts, republics, revolutions, most/ No graver than a schoolboy's barring out.
