Poem A Day

Classic poem

Versicles

by George Gordon, Lord Byron

I READ the "Christabel;"

Very well:

I read the "Missionary;"

Pretty--very:

I tried at "Ilderim;"

Ahem!

I read a sheet of "Marg'ret of _Anjou_;"

_Can you_?

I turned a page of Webster's "Waterloo;"

Pooh! pooh!

I looked at Wordsworth's milk-white "Rylstone Doe;"

Hillo!

I read "Glenarvon," too, by Caro Lamb;

God damn!
