I HEARD YOUR SOLEMN-SWEET PIPES, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: I heard you solemn-sweet pipes of the organ as last sunday morn I passed church
Last Line: Bells last night under my ear.
Subject(s): Love


I heard you solemn-sweet pipes of the organ as last Sunday
morn I pass'd the church,
Winds of autumn, as I walk'd the woods at dusk I heard your
long-stretch'd sighs up above so mournful,
I heard the perfect Italian tenor singing at the opera. I
heard the soprano in the midst of the quartet singing;
Heart of my love! you too I heard murmuring low through one
of the wrists around my head,
Heard the pulse of you when all was still ringing little
bells last night under my ear.
