If you desire a noble work of art,
Be it a poem, picture, statue, song,
To whom do you in rust it? To the best?
The single one selected from the mass?
Or to a hundred of a lower grade?
Or thousands or ten thousands lower still?
Secure that the majority is right
And has the highest art, the deflest skill.
