PRAISE OF FAMOUS MEN: 6. ANDREW LANG, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: Then, as yellow, green, and grey, / silver, brown, and red
Last Line: "since I loved you lang."
Subject(s): Lang, Andrew (1844-1912)


THEN, as yellow, green, and grey,
silver, brown, and red
books in brilliant rocket-spray
burst about his head,

and, as petal after petal
climb the skies, and hang,
"Love me," hear him cry, "a little
since I loved you Lang."
