George Gordon Byron - Lines In The Travellers` Book At OrchomenusGeorge Gordon Byron - Lines In The Travellers` Book At Orchomenus
Work rating: Low


IN THIS BOOK A TRAVELLER HAD WRITTEN:­ `Fair Albion, smiling, sees her son depart To trace the birth and nursery of art: Noble his object, glorious is his aim; He comes to Athens, and he writes his name.` BENEATH WHICH LORD BYRON INSERTED THE FOLLOWING. The modest bard, like many a bard unknown, Rhymes on our names, but wisely hides his own; But yet, whoe`er he be, to say no worse, His name would bring more credit than his verse.
