NATALIA'S RESURRECTION: 30, by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Thus was natalia loved and lost and won Last Line: Since both from adam were and eve descended. | ||||||||
Thus was Natalia loved and lost and won. Some say that Adrian, having gained the goal Of his long hopes, and being of those who run Too lightly for their constancy of soul, Or finding maybe that in spite of fate She he had saved from death was ill at ease, And halted still in doubt 'twixt this and that, Grudging her frightened soul its ecstasies, At a high feast in presence of her kin Gave back Natalia to her husband's care: A fair resolve, mayhap, and lesser sin, If that sin be which love hath made so fair. Yet do I doubt me all so blindly ended, Since both from Adam were and Eve descended. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ESTHER; A YOUNG MAN'S TRAGEDY: 51 by WILFRID SCAWEN BLUNT THE LOVE SONNETS OF PROTEUS: 110.
