Priapeia

Priaepia

by divers poets in English verse and prose. Translated by Sir Richard Burton and Leonard C. Smithers

  1. An I rustical seem to have spoken somewhat unlearned,
  2. Pardon me: apples I pluck, pluck I no matter of books;
  3. Yet in my rudeness ok when hearing the dominie reading,
  4. Stood I storing in mind much of Homerical lore.
