IOTA SUBSCRIPT, by ROBERT FROST Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Seek not in me the big I capital Last Line: But upsilon which is the greek for you Subject(s): Greek Language | |||
Seek not in me the big I capital, Not yet the little dotted in me seek. If I have in me any I at all, Tis the iota subscript of the Greek. So small am I as an attention beggar. The letter you will find me subscript to Is neither alpha, eta, nor omega, But upsilon which is the Greek for you. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MODERN GREEK 101 by RACHEL HADAS ROMAIOS by WILLAM GAY BALLANTINE A HANDBOOK TO HOMER by ALFRED DENNIS GODLEY THE CHAUTAUQUAN MAID by BENJAMIN FRANKLIN KING THE GREEK QUARTER by JOHN MYERS O'HARA ON THE GREEK SCHOLAR GOTTFRIED HERMANN by RICHARD PORSON PROLOGUE DESIGNED FOR THE PLAY OF OEDIPUS by THOMAS SHERIDAN (1687-1738) GREEK BANISHED FROM THE SCHOOLS by AMOS RUSSEL WELLS |
