A SONG OF THE PRINCESS, by SARA TEASDALE Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: The princess has her lovers Last Line: I ween that she would die. Alternate Author Name(s): Filsinger, Ernest B., Mrs. | |||
The princess has her lovers, A score of knights has she, And each can sing a madrigal, And praise her gracefully. But Love that is so bitter Hath put within her heart A longing for the scornful knight Who silent stands apart. And tho' the others praise and plead, She maketh no reply, Yet for a single word from him, I ween that she would die. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A LITTLE WHILE by SARA TEASDALE A MINUET OF MOZART'S by SARA TEASDALE A WINTER BLUEJAY by SARA TEASDALE |
