SIT DOWN IN THE LOWEST ROOM by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: LORD, GIVE ME GRACE
Last Line: SIT LOW, IT AIMS AWRY TO GO UP HIGHER.
LORD, give me grace
To take the lowest place;
Nor even desire,
Unless it be Thy Will, to go up higher.
Except by grace,
I fail of lowest place;
Except desire
Sit low, it aims awry to go up higher.
