A FAITHFUL SERVANT, by DIOSCORIDES First Line: A lydian, yes, a lydian I Last Line: Timanthes will be thine. | ||||||||
ALYDIAN, yes, a Lydian I; But though I was a slave, My master let his tutor lie In this, a free man's grave. Good years and happy be thy share! And when, with life's decline Thou comest, master, even there Timanthes will be thine. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...CHAMBER MUSIC: 31 by JAMES JOYCE DISMAL MOMENT PASSING by CLARENCE MAJOR FANCY IN NUBIBUS; OR, THE POET IN THE CLOUDS by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE HIS IMMORTALITY by THOMAS HARDY THE BROOK; AN IDYL: THE BROOK'S SONG by ALFRED TENNYSON |
