THE HONEYMOON by WALTER SAVAGE LANDOR

Poet Analysis

First Line: THE HONEYMOON IS VERY STRANGE
Last Line: FAINTLY; AND THEN . . HAS NAUGHT TO LOSE.
Subject(s): HONEYMOONS;

THE honey-moon is very strange.
Unlike all other moons the change
She regularly undergoes.
She rises at the full; then loses
Much of her brightness; then reposes
Faintly; and then . . has naught to lose.
