THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD: TRANSLATION, by CAIUS PEDO ALBINOVANUS First Line: The plants and trees made poor and old Last Line: Do promise nature's help in vain. | ||||||||
The plants and trees made poor and old By winter envious, The springtime bounteous Covers again from shame and cold; But never man repaired again His youth and beauty lost, Though art, and care, and cost Do promise nature's help in vain. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE LITTLE BLACK-EYED REBEL by WILLIAM MCKENDREE CARLETON A DIRGE (1) by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS A MINUTE by INNOKENTI FYODOROVICH ANNENSKY OFF BARNEGAT by ETHEL LYNN BEERS THOMAS GRAY by ARTHUR CHRISTOPHER BENSON |
