I do not tremble when I meet The stoutest of my foes, But Heaven defend me from the friend Who comes but never goes !
ii He drops into my easy-chair, And asks about the news ; He peers into my manuscript, And gives his candid views ; He tells me where he likes the line, And where he 's forced to grieve ; He takes the strangest liberties, But never takes his leave ! 28 Ill He reads my daily paper through Before I 've seen a word; He scans the lyric (that I wrote) And thinks it quite absurd ; He ...calmly smokes my last cigar, And coolly asks for more ; He opens everything he sees Except the entry door !
IV He talks about his fragile health, And tells me of the pains He suffers from a score of ills Of which he ne'er complains; And how he struggled once with death To keep the fiend at bay ; On themes like those away he goes, But never goes away !
v He tells me of the carping words Some shallow critic wrote ; And every precious paragraph Familiarly can quote ; 29 MY He thinks the writer did me wrong ; FAMILIAR He 'd like to run him through !
