OCTAVES IN AN OXFORD GARDEN: 7, by ARTHUR W. UPSON Poet's Biography
First Line: Here did wren make himself a student home
Last Line: Adown the wall as then he saw it roam.
Subject(s): Oxfordshire, England
First Line: Here did wren make himself a student home
Last Line: Adown the wall as then he saw it roam.
Subject(s): Oxfordshire, England
Here did Wren make himself a student home
Or e'er he made a name that England loves.
I wonder, as he watched yon chapel doves
If he did have some foresight of that dome
On Lud's old Hill where now their coveys come,
With them that bear his name, in lofty coves.
I wonder if this straying shadow moves
Adown the wall as then he saw it roam.
