THE THRONE, by HENRY VAUGHAN Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: When with these eyes closed now by thee Last Line: And say, thy will be done! Alternate Author Name(s): Silurist | ||||||||
When with these eyes closed now by thee, But then restored, The great and white throne I shall see Of my dread Lord: And lowly kneeling (for the most Stiff then must kneel) Shall look on him, at whose high cost (Unseen) such joys I feel. Whatever arguments, or skill Wise heads shall use, Tears only and my blushes still I will produce. And should those speechless beggars fail, Which oft have won; Then taught by thee, I will prevail, And say, Thy will be done! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest... |
