Excerpt from Poetry for the People: And Other Poems

To whom Shakspeare dedicated and, for the most part, addrest his Sonnets, was Mr. William Herbert, the third Earl of Pembroke, his Friend and your Ancestor.

Excerpt from Poetry for the People: And Other Poems

Amid the factions of the Field of Life
The Poet held his little neutral ground,
And they who mixt the deepest in the strife
Their evening way to his seclusion found;

Thus meeting oft the' antagonist of the day,
Who near in mute suspicion seemed to stand,
He said what neither would be first to say,
And, having spoke, left them hand in hand.
