Musings :: Byron and feels # 3

Lines Addressed To The Rev. J.T. Becher, On His Advising The Author To Mix More With Society

by George Gordon, Lord Byron (composed: 1806) 

  Dear Becher, you tell me to mix with mankind;

     I cannot deny such a precept is wise;

  But retirement accords with the tone of my mind:

     I will not descend to a world I despise.
