To A Poet

Title:     To A Poet
Author: William Butler Yeats [More Titles by Yeats]

To a Poet, Who Would Have Me Praise Certain Bad Poets, Imitators of His and Mine.

You say, as I have often given tongue
In praise of what another's said or sung,
'Twere politic to do the like by these;
But where's the wild dog that has praised his fleas?

[The end]
William Butler Yeats's poem: To A Poet
