ON POPE S TRANSLATION OF HOMER Pope could not translate Homer, so you say; But tell me who of all the rest could, pray, Or who will ever bend that mighty bow. Yet lines of his roll on in thunderous roar, And his winged words the empyrean soar, In scorn of others crawling far below.
[72] TO WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR Landor, thou art, in truth, the one unique: A Briton, yet a Roman and a Greek, And still no less Italian; in all time Breathing ambrosial airs of every clime; Who all the spoils of all th...e ages stored, And drew such honey from thy heaping hoard, That all the Muses crown thee with their bays Fadeless throughout thy fame-besplendored days.
A lettered Titan, thou, so greatly great, Thou sittest throned in high, imperial state, Like some immortal God that keeps his place In lonely grandeur of unconquered space, With none so venturesome as dare dispute His rule as being less than absolute, And who, impregnably contented, knows That on the centuries he shall repose.
[73] TO WALT WHITMAN Thou roughest-hewn of all the poet kind!
