UNDERWOODS: BOOK 1: 1. ENVOY by ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON

Poet Analysis

First Line: GO, LITTLE BOOK, AND WISH TO ALL
Last Line: A NIGHTINGALE IN THE SYCAMORE!
Subject(s): WISHES;

Go, little book, and wish to all
Flowers in the garden, meat in the hall,
A bin of wine, a spice of wit,
A house with lawns enclosing it,
A living river by the door,
A nightingale in the sycamore!
