STANZA WRITTEN FOR THE ODE WRITTEN IN 1819, by                 Poet Analysis     Poet's Biography
First Line: Gather, oh, gather
Last Line: The dove and the serpent reconciled!


GATHER, oh, gather,
Foeman and friend in love and peace!
Waves sleep together
When the blasts that called them to battle cease.
For fangless Power, grown tame and mild,
Is at play with Freedom's fearless child --
The dove and the serpent reconciled!
