Call no man famous till you know his end.

"On" is the most effective. Docked of "on,"

Who's Milt? or Nels? or Newt? "On" nerves Anon

To blush unseen in public. Say, who penn'd

Don Juan? Was it Byr? Could Burt befriend

The humpstruck? So curtailed and put upon,

Would Caxt or Paxt, would Lipt, would Winst have shone?

No, they would not. Their "on"'s what we commend.

And what though "on" too lavishly impart

The gift of greatness ("Chestert," murmur some,

"Were ample; not to mention A. C. Bens")?

We're spared—remember this in "on's" defence—

A Shawon ranting from a super-cart,

A Caineon skilled to beat the outsize drum.
