AN INVOCATION; SONG, FR. REMORSE, by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Hear, sweet spirit, hear the spell Last Line: Miserere domine! Variant Title(s): A Voice Sings Subject(s): Inquisition | |||
Hear, sweet spirit, hear the spell, Lest a blacker charm compel! So shall the midnight breezes swell With thy deep long-lingering knell. And at evening evermore, In a chapel on the shore, Shall the chaunter, sad and saintly, Yellow tapers burning faintly, Doleful masses chaunt for thee, Miserere Domine! Hark! the cadence dies away On the quiet moonlight sea: The boatmen rest their oars and say, Miserere Domine! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE AUTO-DA-FE; A LEGEND OF SPAIN by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM THE HERETIC'S TRAGEDY by ROBERT BROWNING THE INQUISITOR by OLIVE TILFORD DARGAN THE SPANISH GYPSY: BOOK 2 by MARY ANN EVANS THE SPANISH GYPSY: BOOK 3 by MARY ANN EVANS THE SPANISH GYPSY: BOOK 4 by MARY ANN EVANS THE SPANISH GYPSY: BOOK 5 by MARY ANN EVANS THE FOREST SANCTUARY: PART ONE by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS THE FOREST SANCTUARY: PART TWO by FELICIA DOROTHEA HEMANS A CHILD'S EVENING PRAYER by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE A DAY DREAM by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE A THOUGHT SUGGESTED BY A VIEW, OF SADDLEBACK IN CUMBERLAND by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE |
