TO THE MEMORY OF HENRY KIRK WHITE, by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON First Line: In yon lone valley where the cypress spreads Last Line: Like him they droop, like him untimely die. Subject(s): White, Henry Kirke (1785-1806) | |||
In yon lone valley where the cypress spreads Its gloomy, dark, impenetrable shades The mourning Nine , o'er White's untimely grave Murmur their sighs, like Neptune's troubled wave. There sits Consumption, sickly, pale, and thin, Her joy evincing by a ghastly grin; There his deserted garlands with'ring lie, Like him they droop, like him untimely die. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A SONG (1) by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON A SONG (2) by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON A SONG (IN IMITATION OF THE SCOTCH) by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON A VIEW OF DEATH by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON ALONZO AND IMANEL by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON AMERICA by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON AMERICAN POETRY; A FRAGMENT by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON AMIR KHAN by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON AN ACROSTIC: THE MOON by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON AN ACROSTIC: THE SUN by LUCRETIA MARIA DAVIDSON |
