Excerpt from Dramas: The Witch of Rosenburg, The Hidden GemIF writing verse were but a poet's work, I certainly should try this job to shirk, But I have no resource I fain must go it, Though I shall thereby prove, I am no poet My orders are explicit - write a play, Prologue and Epilogue, I must obey, And so would you, if such a summons came So gently breathed, in dear St. Leo's name The purpose of a Prologue chie¿y is, To tell the moral bearing of the piece. Now, my wish is - the youthful to remind, Always to be considerate and kind, Not to judge rashly - nor defects to spy, But estimate with heart, as well as eye Not to despise, in pride of early strength, Those whom, of days, God blesses with the length, Though they may dim the eye, and curve the frame. To be hand to the maimed, foot to the lame Seeking of age the pains thus to assuage, To earn themselves, one day, a painless age.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
