The Poetical Works of Oliver Wendell Holmes - Volume 07: Songs of Many Seasons by Oliver Wendell Holmes THUS I lift the sash, so longShut against the flight of song;All too late for vain excuse, -Lo, my captive rhymes are loose. Rhymes that, flitting through my brain, Beat against my window-pane, Some with gayly colored wings, Some, alas! with venomed stings. Shall they bask in sunny rays?Shall they feed on sugared praise?Shall they stick with tangled feetOn the critic's poisoned sheet? Are the outside winds too rough?Is the world not wide enough?Go, my winged verse, and try, -Go, like Uncle Toby's fly!
