SHE SHALL BE BROUGHT UNTO THE KING by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: THE KING'S DAUGHTER IS ALL GLORIOUS WITHIN
Last Line: THE KING'S DAUGHTER IS.
Subject(s): JERUSALEM;
THE King's Daughter is all glorious within,
Her clothing of wrought gold sets forth her bliss;
Where the endless choruses of heaven begin
The King's Daughter is;

Perfect her notes in the perfect harmonies;
With tears wiped away, no conscience of sin,
Loss forgotten and sorrowful memories;

Alight with Cherubin, afire with Seraphin,
Lily for pureness, rose for charities,
With joy won and with joy evermore to win,
The King's Daughter is.
