Miltonum vir (O facinus nefarium!) Exagitavit tanquam plagiarium. Miramur, hanc qui protulisset thesin, Quid esse Momus crederet Poesin. Num, quæso, vult ut, hâc obstetricante, Dicendum sit quod nemo dixit ante? O admirandam hominis versuti Calliditatem, quâ volebat uti! Dixisset ipse, nimium securus, Quod nemo dicet præsens aut futurus, Dum felis ungues persequentur murem, Miltonum, scilicet, fuisse furem. Exulent ergo, (ejus ex effatis) Quicunque nomen usurparint vatis; Nullum vocemus, prorsus, ad examen Eorum sensum, vim, aut modulamen;— Furantur omnes;— habeamus verum Poetam exhinc unicum Lauderum! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...VERSES: THE FIFTH BOY by JOHN BYROM VERSES: THE FOURTH BOY by JOHN BYROM VERSES: THE MASTER'S SPEECH by JOHN BYROM VERSES: THE SECOND BOY by JOHN BYROM VERSES: THE SIXTH BOY by JOHN BYROM VERSES: THE THIRD BOY by JOHN BYROM EPIGRAM: TO OLD-END GATHERER by BEN JONSON EPIGRAM: TO PROWL THE PLAGIARY by BEN JONSON DEFENSE AGAINST CHARGE OF PLAGIARISM by ANNE KILLIGREW A HYMN FOR CHRISTMAS DAY (2) by JOHN BYROM |
