O YE WHO LOVE TODAY, by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI Poet Analysis Poet's Biography Last Line: Then to her sun gives place Alternate Author Name(s): Alleyne, Ellen; Rossetti, Christina Subject(s): Love; Patience | ||||||||
O YE who love to-day, Turn away From Patience with her silver ray: For Patience shows a twilight face, Like a half-hghted moon When daylight dies apace. But ye who love to-morrow, Beg or borrow To-day some bitterness of sorrow: For Patience shows a lustrous face, In depth of night her noon; Then to her sun gives place. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...GOD WAITS FOR THE WANDERING WORLD by LUCILLE CLIFTON IT IS FINISHED' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI ITALIA, IO TI SALUTO!' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE HEART KNOWETH ITS OWN BITTERNESS' (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
