Ruthless Rhymes for Heartless Homes

Envoi

Reading edition

SPEED, Ruthless Rhymes; throughout the land Disperse yourselves with patient zeal! Go, perch upon the Critic's hand, Just after he has had a meal. But should he still unkindly be, Unperch and hasten back to me. And, wheresoever you may roam, Remember the secluded shelf (Where, sitting in his Heartless Home, The author chortles to himself), There, in the distant by-and-bye, You still may flutter back—to die.
