I was Lucky enough to find a 2nd hand copy of " the Stuffed Owl" a few years ago and it has provided me with many happy hours of agony!! seek it out you enjoyer of strange and BAD verse, it is a treasury of the awfule, wrought with great skill.
As a Taster can you guess which later famous poet penned these immortal lines in his youth?
" The lamp of day, with ill-presaging glare,
Dim,cloudy,sunk beneath the western wave
Th'inconstant blasthowl'd thro'the darkening air
and hollow whistled in the rocky cave...

Th' increasing blast roar'd round the beetling rocks,
The clouds, swift-wing'd flew o'er the starry sky;
The groaning trees untimelyshed their locks
And shooting meteors caught the startled eye
