Scorn not the Sonnet ;

With it Camoëns soothed an exile's grief.

-Wordsworth.

Poetas por poetas sejam lidos;

Sejam só por poetas explicadas

Suas obras divinas.

-Manoel Corrêa.

Let Poets be by Poets read;

By Poets be interpreted

Their works divine.

Est quadam prodire tenus, si non datur ultra.

-Hor. Epis. I. Lib. I.
