Lines on Gunn

by James McIntyre

From Standard Ebooks · standardebooks/james-mcintyre_poetry

Lines on receiving an announcement by card that Mr. Gunn had assumed the control of the Courier .
My dear friend Gunn, May you prize won, But to us hark When you shoot mark,
High you must aim And at right game, And truth employ Wrong to destroy.
Your friend the Bard Hopes your reward Will be furriore For Courier .
