Tagus, farewell, that westward with thy streams Turns up the grains of gold already tried; With spur and sail for I go seek the Thames, Gainward the sun that showeth her wealthy pride, And to the town that Brutus sought by dreams Like bended moon doth lend her lusty side. My King, my country, alone for whom I live, Of mighty love the wings for this me give. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...RICHARD, WHAT'S THAT NOISE? by RICHARD HOWARD LOOKING FOR THE GULF MOTEL by RICHARD BLANCO RIVERS INTO SEAS by LYNDA HULL DESTINATIONS by JOSEPHINE JACOBSEN THE ONE WHO WAS DIFFERENT by RANDALL JARRELL THE CONFESSION OF ST.
