WERE YOU ON THE MOUNTAIN?, by ANONYMOUS First Line: "oh, were you on the mountain, or saw you my love?" Last Line: And she was not pining in sorrow like thee Subject(s): Love | |||
Oh, were you on the mountain, or saw you my love? Or saw you my own one, my queen and my dove? Or saw you the maiden with the step firm and free? And say, is she pining in sorrow like me? I was upon the mountain, and saw there your love; I saw there your own one, your queen and your dove; I saw there the maiden with the step firm and free; And she was not pining in sorrow like thee. | 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 |
