Excerpt from The Captive Muse
Still less I'll lie in ambush, to surprise, And skulk beneath anonymous disguise In studied mystery involve my name, And, void of fear, shake off all sense of shame Still less, assassin-like, I'll stab my foe, Unseen the hand that deals the murd'rons blow No I boldly write, I'll boldly own, And if I injure, be th' Offender known.
