LITTLE KING, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: From worshipping I now arise
Last Line: Will love you well, nor love you long.
Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John


From worshipping I now arise
Stunned and aghast, with open eyes
I see the real, the little you
I thought so gallant, brave and true.

A pity yet is mine, I fear,
Since wherefore comes this falling tear,
For none among your fawning throng
Will love you well, nor love you long.
