SONG: 108, by THOMAS WYATT Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Comfort at hand! Pluck up thy heart Last Line: Pluck up thy heart.' Alternate Author Name(s): Wyat, Thomas Subject(s): Comfort; Hearts | |||
'Comfort at hand! Pluck up thy heart. Look, lo, where it doth stand. Since the redress of all thy smart Doth lie so good at hand Pluck up thy heart. 'Pluck up thy heart. Why droopest thou so?' So said I, methought, And from the hill I looked low, And with mine eye I sought Comfort at hand. 'Comfort at hand mine eye hath found,' Methought. 'Therefore be glad. If she be there may heal thy wound, Why shouldest thou then be sad? Pluck up thy heart. 'Pluck up thy heart. A mourning man Doth get no good by woe. Be glad alway, for whoso can Shall find whereso he go Comfort at hand. 'Comfort at hand! Go seek and find. Look if there be redress. If not, abide a better wind. In hope of some release Pluck up thy heart.' | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CARDIOLOGICAL by JOHN FREDERICK NIMS NOCTURNE OF REMEMBERED SPRING by CONRAD AIKEN |
