[The two Rossettis (brothers they)]

The two Rossettis (brothers they)
And Holman Hunt and John Millais,
With Stephens chivalrous and bland,
And Woolner in a distant land,
In these six men I awestruck see
Embodied the great P.R.B.
D. G. Rossetti offered two
Good pictures to the public view:
Unnumbered ones great John Millais,
And Holman more than I can say [OMITTED]
William Rossetti calm and solemn
Cuts up his brethren by the column. [OMITTED]
