NANCY DAWSON, by HERBERT P. HORNE First Line: Nancy dawson, nancy dawson Last Line: Nancy dawson. | |||
NANCY DAWSON, Nancy Dawson, Not so very long ago Some one wronged you from sheer love, dear; Little thinking it would crush, dear, All I cherished in you so. But now, what's the odds, my Nancy? Where's the guinea, there's the fancy. Are you Nancy, that old Nancy? Nancy Dawson. Nancy Dawson, Nancy Dawson, I forget you, what you were; Till I feel the sad hours creep, dear, O'er my heart; as o'er my cheek, dear, Once of old, that old, old hair: And then, unawares, my Nancy, I remember, and I fancy You are Nancy, that old Nancy; Nancy Dawson. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...FORMOSAE PUELLAE by HERBERT P.
