MARGARET AND DORA, by THOMAS CAMPBELL Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Margaret's beauteous - grecian arts Last Line: Dora to her poet. Subject(s): Beauty; Social Classe | ||||||||
MARGARET'S beauteous. Grecian arts Ne'er drew form completer; Yet why, in my heart of hearts, Hold I Dora's sweeter? Dora's eyes of heavenly blue Pass all painting's reach; Ringdoves' notes are discord to The music of her speech. Artists! Margaret's smile receive, And on canvas show it; But for perfect worship leave Dora to her poet. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE WEALTH OF THE DESTITUTE by DENISE LEVERTOV THE GATEKEEPER'S CHILDREN by PHILIP LEVINE THE SWIMMING POOL by THOMAS LUX POEM BEGINNING WITH A RANDOM PHRASE FROM COLERIDGE by THOMAS LUX FRESCOES FOR MR.
