THE MUSICIAN, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: There was a good musician
Last Line: Ah! How his music stirs!
Subject(s): Love; Music & Musicians


There was a good musician,
Who loved a lady fair,
And like a great magician
Could charm her every care.

He deeply loved the lady,
And when death closed her eyes,
For months no music played he,
But gazed into the skies.

At last his sombre spirit
Awoke and talked with hers:
He plays and she can hear it.
Ah! how his music stirs!
