To A Gentleman, Who Sent Me A Present Of Pens Poem by Christian Milne

To A Gentleman, Who Sent Me A Present Of Pens



THE quills and kind epistle came,
Which you in goodness sent me;
I'm at a loss due thanks to frame
For such a favour lent me.
Since Nature taught my Muse to please
Without the school's instructions,
I ne'er possess'd such pens as these
To mark my small productions.
As oft as I'm allow'd to taste
The Heliconian fountain,
Such fair made quills will aid my haste
To climb PARNASSUS ' mountain.
