Did You Ask Dulcet Rhymes From Me?

DID YOU ASK DULCET RHYMES FROM ME?

DID YOU ask dulcet rhymes from me? Did you find what I sang erewhile so hard to follow,  
 to understand?
Why I was not singing erewhile for you to follow, to  
 understand—nor am I now;
—What to such as you, anyhow, such a poet as I?  
 —therefore leave my works,
And go lull yourself with what you can understand; For I lull nobody—and you will never understand me.
