Not a Critic—But a Judge by Samuel Taylor Coleridge Lyrics
17
Whom should I choose for my Judge? the earnest, impersonal reader,
Who, in the work, forgets me and the world and himself!
You who have eyes to detect, and Gall to Chastise the imperfect,
Have you the heart, too, that loves,—feels and rewards the Compleat?
18
A sumptuous and magnificent Revenge.
