POE’S CRITICS
A certain tyrant to disgrace
The more a rebel's resting-place,
Compelled the people ever one
To hurl, in passing there, a stone;
Which done, the rugged pile became
A sepulchre to keep the name.
And thus it is with Edgar Poe
Each passing critic has his throw,
Nor see, defeating his intent,
How lofty grows the monument.

EDGAR ALLAN POE — THE MAN
VOLUME II
Had I not Song?
Yea; and it lingers yet
The souls to fret
Of an ignoble throng,
Aflame with hate
Of the exculting Fate
That hurls their idols from her temple fair,
And shrines me there.
JOHN B. TABB
