Peter Wilson, A.R.A.,

In his small atelier,

Studied Continental Schools,

Drew by Academic rules.

So he made his bid for fame

But no golden answer came,

For the fashion of his day

Chanced to set the other way,

And decadent forms of Art

Drew the patrons of the mart.

Now this poor reward of merit

Rankled so in Peter's spirit,
