ENCHANTRESS, by AL-MUNFATIL First Line: Friends, hear the story of / my heart's only love Last Line: Virginity. | |||
Friends, hear the story of My heart's only love: Lissom is she, And, as she sweetly sways, My fond heart obeys Her witchery. So sweetly she enchants; Each firm breast a lance Pointed at me, And pointed, guarding yet Her inviolate Virginity. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE SONG OF HIAWATHA: HIAWATHA'S WOOING by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW THE LITTLE HILL by EDNA ST.
