Arthur Quiller-Couch d3o48

For this Anthology I have tried to range over the whole field of English Verse from the beginning, or from the Thirteenth Century to this closing year of the Nineteenth, and to choose the best. Glosses of archaic and otherwise difficult words are given at the foot of the page: but the text has not been disfigured with reference-marks. And rather th.. 6g2w43

Arthur Hugh Clough 3m263j

A collection of poems written by Poems.It was but some few nights agoI wandered down this quiet lane;I pray that I may never knowThe feelings then I felt, again.The leaves were shining all about,You might almost have seen them springing;I heard the cuckoo’s simple shout,And all the little birds were singing.It was not dull, the air was clear,A..

Felicia Hemans 3p267

One of her earliest tastes was a ion for Shakspeare, which she read, as her choicest recreation, at six years old; and in later days she would often refer to the hours of romance she had ed in a secret haunt of her own—a seat amongst the branches of an old apple-tree—where, revelling in the treasures of the cherished volume, she would becom..

Isaac Rosenberg 563x7

Of the many young poets who gave their lives in the war, Isaac Rosenberg was not the least gifted.

Morning again breaks through the mines of Heaven,And shakes her jewelled kirtle on the sky,Heavy with rosy gold. Aside are drivenThe vassal clouds, which bow as she draws nigh,And catch her scattered gems of orient dye,The pearlèd-ruby which her pathway strews;Argent and amber, now thrown useless by.The uncoloured clouds wear what she doth refuse,F..

R. O. Fenwick 7715m

The Author of the Goblin Groom can, on no consideration, be induced to follow the example of the amiable and justly celebrated Madame de Genlis, who, in her Historical Romance of the Chevaliers du Cygne, observes,—“Enfin l’ideè de faire mourir l’heroine de l’histoire des les premieres pages, et cependant de s’occuper d’elle jusqu’ a la fin, est peu..

Alfred Lambourne 32b3o

A tale from out my western life you say?Something to while the Christmas Eve away;And something, too, to suit this festal time,With two old bachelors, long past their prime,Who as they sip in solitude their wine,Are filled with memories of Auld Lang Syne?Well,—I grant it. Yet why did you add,Something to suit the time? I shall be glad—But was the l..
