MASQUE AT THE MARRIAGE OF THE LORD HAYES: SONG, by THOMAS CAMPION Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Time, that leads the fatal round Last Line: But all as starres glist'ring fair and blithe appear. | ||||||||
Time, that leads the fatal round, Hath made his centre in our ground, With swelling seas embraced; And there at one stay he rests, And with the Fates keeps holy feasts, With pomp and pastime graced. Light Cupids there do dance and Venus sweetly sings With heavenly notes tuned to sound of silver strings: Their songs are all of joy, no sign of sorrow there, But all as starres glist'ring fair and blithe appear. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A BOOK OF AIRS: SONG 10.
