“Surely you wouldnt grudge the poor old man
Some humble way to save his self-respect.

He meant to clear the upper pasture, too.”

“Hard by the lilied Nile I saw
A duskish river dragon stretched along.
The brown habergeon of his limbs enamelled
With sanguine alamandines and rainy pearl:
And on his back there lay a young one sleeping,
No bigger than a mouse;”
—Thomas Lovell Beddoes (18031849)
