It speaks all tongues with equal force ; No " Truchman's " aid need it retain. It travels far, is prized by all, This son of Persia's torrid shore, The judge it is whose firm decrees Eespected stand for evermore ; Its mandates legists must maintain. The pen's a patron, in the sense That from it flows or * Yea" or "Nay. " Dumb it remains with worthless wights : Grows eloquent, wit's flashes play, When talent prompts the fervid strain. VARIETIES OF TURKISH POETRY. 43 With awkward scribblers, one ...and all, It splutters, blurts, befouls the page ; Like well-train'd courser, on it speeds, When guided by a master sage, Who knows to check or slack the rein. Capricious, true, its moods are found, Now garrulous, now taciturn ; At times dilates on tresses dark, As wishing ev'ry curl to learn ; At times one hair will give it pain. None dare dispute the pen's great pow'r ; The author notes, obeys its rules. Contemporary with each age, It settles all disputes of schools ; None, of its judgments, e'er complain.
