I'LL COME WHEN THOU ART SADDEST by EMILY JANE BRONTE

Poet Analysis

Subject(s): TOGETHERNESS;

I'LL come when thou art sadest
Bids love in the darkened room
When the rude days mirth has vanished
And the smile of joy is banished
From evenings chilly gloom


I'll come when the hearts worst feeling
Has entire unbiased sway
And my influence o'er thee stealing
Greif deepening joy congealing
Shall bear thy soul away


Listen ' t is just the hour
The awful time for thee
Dost thou not feel upon thy soul
A Flood of strange sensations roll
Forerunners of a sterner power
Heralds of me
