To a Western Boy.

Part of the cluster CALAMUS.

TO A WESTERN BOY.

MANY things to absorb I teach to help you become eleve of mine; Yet if blood like mine circle not in your veins, If you be not silently selected by lovers and do not silently select  
 lovers, Of what use is it that you seek to become eleve of mine?
