TO EDUARD MORIKE, by LUDWIG FULDA Poet's Biography First Line: Through your quiet-souled attendance Last Line: You are king by god's good pleasure. Subject(s): Morike, Eduard (1804-1875) | |||
THROUGH your quiet-souled attendance Upon verse and your vocation Runs a holy self-dependence And a smiling resignation. Where's the need for you to cherish Far-brought beauty, far-sought treasure? Of your house and of your parish You are king by God's good pleasure. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN THE EXPRESS TRAIN by LUDWIG FULDA TO ADOLF WILBRANDT ON HIS SEVENTIETH ANNIVERSARY by LUDWIG FULDA TO A REPUBLICAN FRIEND, 1848 by MATTHEW ARNOLD THE LIVING DEAD by RALPH CHAPLIN CORRESPONDENCES; HEXAMETERS AND PENTAMETERS by CHRISTOPHER PEARSE CRANCH IMITATIONS OF HORACE: ODE IV, 1 by ALEXANDER POPE DICK, A MAGGOT by JONATHAN SWIFT MUSIC OF HUNGARY by ANNE REEVE ALDRICH LYSISTRATA: HYMN OF PEACE; CHORUSES OF ATHENIANS AND SPARTANS by ARISTOPHANES |
