Epigram on a Blockhead Who Censured a Man of Genius for His Want of Presence of Mind

ON A BLOCKHEAD WHO CENSURED A MAN OF GENIUS FOR HIS WANT OF PRESENCE OF MIND

Presence of mind he has not, I agree;
Had'st thou his absence it were well for thee:
His thoughts are o'er the universe! vain elf,
Thine never quit that little world, — thyself!
