CHIMES, by ALICE MEYNELL Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Brief, on a flying night Last Line: And flies with the cloud. Alternate Author Name(s): Meynell, Wilfrid, Mrs.; Thompson, Alice Christina Subject(s): Bells | |||
Brief, on a flying night, From the shaken tower, A flock of bells take flight. And go with the hour. Like birds from the cote to the gales, Abrupt -- O hark! A fleet of bells set sails, And go to the dark. Sudden the cold airs swing. Alone, aloud, A verse of bells takes wing And flies with the cloud. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE HOUR BETWEEN DOG AND WOLF: 3.
