Public Domain Poetry And Stories - On Bentley's 'Milton.' by Alexander Pope Public domain poetry and public domain stories from the literary greats of yesteryear.
Did Milton's prose, O Charles! thy death defend?
A furious foe unconscious proves a friend.
On Milton's verse did Bentley comment? Know,
A weak officious friend becomes a foe.
While he but sought his author's fame to further,
The murderous critic has avenged thy murther.
