MARGARETHA, by JOSEPH VICTOR VON SCHEFFEL Poet's Biography First Line: In the waves the sun declining Last Line: Thou'rt my vision, margaretha! Subject(s): Love | |||
IN the waves the sun declining, Heaven's last wild splendor shining; Slow from earth the day is stealing, Evening bells afar are pealing: Thou'rt my vision, Margaretha! Leaned against the cliff I stand, Stranger in a stranger land; At my feet the waves are foaming, Through my soul a dream comes roaming: Thou'rt my vision, Margaretha! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE INVENTION OF LOVE by MATTHEA HARVEY TWO VIEWS OF BUSON by ROBERT HASS A LOVE FOR FOUR VOICES: HOMAGE TO FRANZ JOSEPH HAYDN by ANTHONY HECHT AN OFFERING FOR PATRICIA by ANTHONY HECHT LATE AFTERNOON: THE ONSLAUGHT OF LOVE by ANTHONY HECHT A SWEETENING ALL AROUND ME AS IT FALLS by JANE HIRSHFIELD OLD HEIDELBERG by JOSEPH VICTOR VON SCHEFFEL |
