A maker of verses is the refined poet, he does find
Emotional thoughts sublime, inserting some formulae,
Or enigmas that are behind each sustained line, each I
Tell wilt unwind, then that rhyme to be mimed,
The lowest crime in our kingdom mounted up on high.
So if in thy cheerless failure ye seek intense success,
Because ye subjectsto listlessness of the bodiless
Mind's distress, I request ye give no such inference
It's egress or reappearance from the darkest eclipse
In this; but rather by keenest innovations do impress
-And that protects a poets wisdom from the nuisance.

My thoughts on plagiarism.
