His Endymion is not a Greek shepherd, love of a Grecian goddess; he is merely a young Cockney rhymster, dreaming a phantastic dream at the full of the moon.

We thought our gold-laced Christmas rhymsters were the only poets of that name.

I am now fairly entitled to the reputation of being a jolty rhymster.

"Rhymster, n. One who makes rhymes; a versifier; a mean poet."Johnson and Webster.

Another tattered rhymster in the ring, With but the old plea to the sneering schools, That on him too, some secret night in spring Came the old frenzy of a hundred fools To make some thing: the old want dark and deep, The thirst of men, the hunger of the stars, Since first it tinged even the Eternal's sleep, With monstrous dreams of trees and towns and mars.
