Ah, welladay! they met on many an eve, And cull'd the honey hived in either heart, Whiles yet no chill of lurking doubt doth grieve With thought that they could ever draw apart. The maid too featly doth herself deceive, The knight hath long forgot his bitter smart. This earth for them was paradise enow What richer could the glowing heavens bestow? | 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 A DULL DAY IN SEPTEMBER by CHARLES WHITWORTH WYNNE |
