CHAMBER MUSIC: 16 by JAMES JOYCE

Poet Analysis

First Line: O COOL IS THE VALLEY NOW
Last Line: AND THERE, LOVE, WILL WE STAY.
Subject(s): LOVE;
O cool is the valley now

And there, love, will we go

For many a choir is singing now

Where Love did sometime go.

And hear you not the thrushes calling,

Calling us away?

O cool and pleasant is the valley

And there, love, will we stay.
