Don Juan 00-05
Dedication

     V
You - Gentlemen! by dint of long seclusion
     From better company, have kept your own
At Keswick, and, through still continued fusion
     Of one another's minds, at last have grown
To deem as a most logical conclusion,
     That Poesy has wreaths for you alone:
There is a narrowness in such a notion,
Which makes me wish you'd change your lakes for ocean.

George Gordon Byron, Lord Byron (1788-1824) ByronLong
