'One day I woke to find myself famous' George Gordon, Lord Byron, did once proclaim Childe Harold Pilgrimmage the impetus Childe Harold and he being one and same Though far greater verse he'd go on to write Don Juan bested nowhere in literature His biography with his pen would fight As to which would cut the finer figure His Lady Byron called him 'mad, bad, and dangerous to know.' Who but she could say A Great Romantic to make a husband? We'd never have Lord Byron that way! Only a life too scandalous for wives Could give us the art that transcends our lives. |
