Love
Sent with Poems
From Works and Life, ed. Forster, vol. VIII (1876)
Love
Little volume, warm with wishes,
Pear not brows that never frown!
After Byron's peppery dishes
Matho's mild skim-milk goes down.
Change she wants not, self-concenter'd,
She whom Attic graces please,
1 She whose Genius never enter'd
Literature's gin-palaces.
