But for you some interloper 1916 Qlurks ant: Qlurls 27 l Might usurp our crown and throne, Some libidinous young toper Raise a standard all his own. I Cast him out with reprobation; F or some solid-pated master Leave him to his cruel fate. Ere a century,s at the gate. This will make a dissertation Both will rise to glory faster, F it to win a doctorate Having had so long to wait. Did we not endure ainction? Shakespeare,s just now limping in. lj If he,d only studied diction, I B What a poet he,d have been! j Clambereol o,er its bastioned walls, We must drink our mead of praise. We still read the monthly journal We,d be left in utter quiet In our blest, ambrosial halls. If you did not chant our lays! l l l Though we,ve reached the land supernal, We must have our honeyed diet; ' I l Raise your sacrificial altar; Slay the upstarts for our feast; Bind the victims; never falter. l Gods are worshipped in the priest. ll Then let your wreaths, so few in number, Since you,ve made our reputation; I Think of extra hours for slumber, You with us are on probation And a quiet no-ontide drowse! While there ,re claimants to the throne. We, the poets dead, salute you; Trust with you our treasure chaste. Let no rising bards refute you, Verseless arbiters of taste! 9 CARY F. JACOB. Still he laureled on our brows. You must guard it as your own.

We, the poets dead, salute you, Long you,ve fought our battles for us, Dons and pundits of all climes; Fought and conquered in our name, We, departed, here depute you Taught the young men to abhor us, Guardians of our sacred rhymes. Set our busts in halls of fame. You have sagely classified us-- Epic, lyric, dramatist- And not once have thought to chide us For the quids and quads we missed. Edited with due devotion Hunted out from crack and randle Every syllable we wrote, Musings better far forgot, Hunted out with deep emotion Scented racy bits of scandal Thoughts from ours far remote. Bubbling in our porridge pot; But we,re sacrosanct and godlike, Scannable in every line, Though our jokes be dry and podlike, Though our lispings smell of wine.
