SONNET ON MOOR PARK - WRITTEN AT PARIS, MAY 11, 1826, by SAMUEL EGERTON BRYDGES Poet's Biography First Line: High name of poet! - sought in every age Last Line: Let me the music of thy murmurs hear. Subject(s): Poetry & Poets | ||||||||
HIGH name of poet! -- sought in every age By thousands -- scarcely won by two or three, -- As with the thorns of this sad pilgrimage My bleeding feet are doom'd their war to wage, With awful worship I have bow'd to thee! And yet perchance it is not fate's decree, This mighty boon should be assign'd to me, My heart's consuming fever to assuage. -- Fountain of Poesy! that liest deep Within the bosom's innermost recesses, And rarely burstest forth to human ear, Break out! -- and, while profoundly magic sleep With pierceless veil all outward form oppresses, Let me the music of thy murmurs hear. | Other Poems of Interest...ANCIENT HISTORY, UNDYING LOVE by MICHAEL S.
