LAST CHANCE, by ANDREW LANG Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Within the streams, pausanias saith Last Line: My ghost may land the ghosts of fish | |||
Within the streams, Pausanias saith , That down Cocytus valley flow, Girdling the gray domain of Death, The spectral fishes come and go; The ghosts of trout flit to and fro. Persephone, fulfil my wish; And grant that in the shades below My ghost may land the ghosts of fish. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SCOT TO JEANNE D'ARC by ANDREW LANG A VERY WOEFUL BALLADE OF THE ART CRITIC (TO E.A.
