The poet has been interviewed, his statements | make me sad and tired; alas, he talks like some one stewed. and not like any one inspired. “I like,” the great man_says, “my pipe far better than the best cigars: 1 am exceding fond | of tripe, and I'm a fan for motor |cars. “Tis true I let my whiskers grow, but not'to have a bardlike look; T simply hate to shave, you know, and village barbers I can’t brook.

Still, still I wear the teeth I wore when I was young, in | times remote, but they are ulcered, | loose and sore, and threaten oft to | get my goat.” I put away the poet's hooks, I'll never read his works again: his songs of birds and running brooks can't cheer me in my lonely den.
