COME, THOU SWEET WONDER, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: Come, thou sweet wonder, by whose power Last Line: That's like a thousand burning ships. Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. | ||||||||
Come, thou sweet Wonder, by whose power We more or less enjoy our years; That mak'st a child forget the breast, And dri'st at once the children's tears, Till sleep shall bring their minds more rest. Come to my heavy rain of care, And make it weigh like dew; charm me With Beauty's hair, her eyes or lips; With mountain dawn, or sunset sea That's like a thousand burning ships. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A CHILD'S PET by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A MOTHER TO HER SICK CHILD by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A STRANGE MEETING by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES A THOUGHT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES ADVICE by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES APRIL'S LAMBS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES BIRD AND BROOK by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES COWSLIPS AND LARKS by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES DAYS TOO SHORT by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES EARLY MORN by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES |
