TO LORD DE TABLEY, by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Still may the muses foster thee, o friend Last Line: In the hushed even-time! Alternate Author Name(s): Dobson, Austin Subject(s): Warren, John Byrne. 3d Baron De Tabley | |||
STILL may the muses foster thee, O Friend, Who, while the vacant quidnuncs stand at gaze, Wond'ring what Prophet next the Fates may send, Still tread'st the ancient ways; Still climb'st the clear-cold altitudes of Song, Or ling'ring 'by the shore of old Romance,' Heed'st not the vogue, how little or how long, Of marvels made in France. Still to the summits may thy face be set, And long may we, that heard thy morning rhyme, Hang on thy noon-day music, nor forget In the hushed even-time! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A GAGE D'AMOUR by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON A GARDEN SONG by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON ARS VICTRIX (IMITATED FROM THEOPHILE GAUTIER) by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON BEFORE SEDAN by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON DORA VERSUS ROSE by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON GROWING GRAY by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW; IN MEMORIAM by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON IN AFTER DAYS; RONDEAU by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON THE BALLAD OF PROSE AND RHYME by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON WHEN THERE IS PEACE by HENRY AUSTIN DOBSON |
