FRIENDS UNBORN, by WILLIAM HENRY DAVIES Poet Analysis First Line: With this one friend - I ask no more Last Line: By his great love of beauty.' Alternate Author Name(s): Davies, W. H. Subject(s): Friendship | ||||||||
With this one friend I ask no more To love me till I die, I sing my songs that, after death, My friends may multiply. To make this world, when I am gone, Think all the more of me Each time a rainbow's in the sky, Or bird is on a tree. That God may say, when I am judged 'This sinner did his duty: Who made men worship Me the more, By his great love of beauty.' | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...YOU & I BELONG IN THIS KITCHEN by JUAN FELIPE HERRERA JASON THE REAL by TONY HOAGLAND NO RESURRECTION by ROBINSON JEFFERS CHAMBER MUSIC: 17 by JAMES JOYCE CHAMBER MUSIC: 18 by JAMES JOYCE THE STONE TABLE by GALWAY KINNELL ALMSWOMAN by EDMUND CHARLES BLUNDEN TO AN ENEMY by MAXWELL BODENHEIM SONNET: 10.
