Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Odes of Horace and His Secular Hymn Apologia "Translator! And of Horace! Too large store We have of such: why would you make them more? A task - to quote the bard's own words - as mad As should we faggots to a forest add." Well! the poor faggot-carrier in a wood May find a pleasaunce, and may gather good: Good for himself, while others, e'en as he, From his poor sticks may better know the tree, Wherefore, let who will read, he not in vain Translates who works two pleasures by one pain.
