COATS FOR MACKEREL

I erect not here a statue to be set up in the market-place of a town, or

in a church, or in any other public place:

Non equidem hoc studeo, pullatis ut mihi nugis

Pagina turgescat. (Pers. _Sat._ v. 19.)

I study not my written leaves should grow

Big-swoln with bubbled toys, which vain breaths blow.
