BY-WAYS ROUND HELICON 65 That was written by John Taylor, the water-poet, which title was bestowed upon him not because he drank water (perhaps he would then have been a somewhat better poet), but because, in pursuance of his calling as a Thames waterman, he rowed upon it.
Row on (good Water-man) and looke back still, (Thus as thou dost) upon the Muses' Hill.
So wrote to him Dekker, and so may we echo and return to John Gay.
*>*>> In 1711 Gay wrote his Epistle on a Miscellany of Poems to Bernar...d, Lintott, the publisher, who, naturally, prefixed it to his Miscellany of May 1712. The poem was sent in manuscript to Pope, whose vanity cannot have been ill-pleased with the lines, towards the close of the poem, in which he is referred to directly : When Pope's harmonious muse with pleasure roves Amidst the plains, the murmuring streams and groves, Attentive Echo, pleas'd to hear his songs, Thro' the glad shade each warbling note prolongs ; His various numbers charm our ravish'd ears, His steady judgment far out-shoots his years, And early in the youth the god appears.
