HIS BANNER OVER ME WAS LOVE, by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: In that world we weary to attain Last Line: In that world. Alternate Author Name(s): Alleyne, Ellen; Rossetti, Christina | ||||||||
IN that world we weary to attain, Love's furled banner floats at large unfurled; There is no more doubt and no more pain In that world. There are gems and gold and inlets pearled; There the verdure fadeth not again; There no clinging tendrils droop uncurled. Here incessant tides stir up the main, Stormy miry depths aloft are hurled: There is no more sea, or storm, or stain, In that world. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ITALIA, IO TI SALUTO!' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE HEART KNOWETH ITS OWN BITTERNESS' (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BED OF FORGET-ME-NOTS by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BETTER RESURRECTION by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BIRTHDAY by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A CHRISTMAS CAROL (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A DIRGE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A LIFE'S PARALLELS by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A PAUSE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
