SONG, by THOMAS MORE Poet's Biography First Line: Where is the nymph, whose azure eye Last Line: Shall guide thee to my bower. Subject(s): Love | |||
Where is the nymph, whose azure eye Can shine through rapture's tear! The sun has sunk, the moon is high, And yet she comes not here! Was that her footstep on the hill -- Her voice upon the gale? -- No, 'twas the wind, and all is still, Oh, maid of Marlivale! Come to me, love, I've wander'd far, 'Tis past the promis'd hour; Come to me, love, the twilight star Shall guide thee to my bower. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD |
