A poem by George Borrow

To Scribblers

________________________________________________
Title:     To Scribblers
Author: George Borrow [More Titles by Borrow]

Would it not be more dignified
To run up debts on every side,
And then to pay your debts refuse,
Than write for rascally Reviews?
And lectures give to great and small,
In pothouse, theatre, and town-hall,
Wearing your brains by night and day
To win the means to pay your way?
I vow by him who reigns in [hell],
It would be more respectable!







[The end]
George Borrow's poem: To Scribblers
