Excerpt from Semiramis: A Tale of Battle and of Love
As for poets, they ever Sing of Queen Semiramis at a period of her seasoned age and wickedness, though her devilish beauty continued to abide with her, being wielded as an evil scepter o'er the souls of men; yet much must be forgiven in a poet, because of that strange inaptitude of truth for a friendly relationship with meter and with rhyme.
