ALLELUIA! OR ALAS! MY HEART IS CRYING by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

Last Line: Life descending soon to be ascending
Subject(s): GRIEF; HEAVEN;
Alleluia! or Alas! my heart is crying:
So yours is sighing;
Or replying with content undying,

Alas! grieves overmuch for pain that is ending,
Hurt that is mending,
Life descending soon to be ascending.
Alleluia!
