IANTHE'S TROUBLES by WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR

Poet Analysis

First Line: YOUR PLEASURES SPRING LIKE DAISIES IN THE GRASS
Last Line: LIKE LITTLE RIPPLES DOWN A SUNNY RIVER.

Your pleasures spring like daisies in the grass,
Cut down, and up again as blithe as ever;
From you, Ianthe, little troubles pass
Like little ripples down a sunny river.
