AN EPITAPH, by GEORGE JOHN CAYLEY First Line: A lovely young lady I mourn in my rhymes Last Line: She waltzed rather well -- it's a pity she's dead.' | ||||||||
A LOVELY young lady I mourn in my rhymes. She was pleasant, good-natured, and civil (sometimes), Her figure was good, she had very fine eyes, And her talk was a mixture of foolish and wise. Her adorers were many, and one of them said, 'She waltzed rather well -- it's a pity she's dead.' | Other Poems of Interest...PARAPHRASE ON THOMAS A KEMPIS by ALEXANDER POPE AMOR MUNDI by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI AN ORIGINAL THOUGHT by MARIA ABDY LEGEND OF HAMILTON TIGHE by RICHARD HARRIS BARHAM ON GRACE CHURCH CORNER by WILLIAM ROSE BENET WHAT MAKES A NATION GREAT? by ALEXANDER BLACKBURN TO A PERSIAN ROSE by WILLIAM STANLEY BRAITHWAITE |
