I SEE THAT ALL THINGS COME TO AN END by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: NO MORE! WHILE SUN AND PLANETS FLY
Last Line: NO MORE.
NO more! while sun and planets fly,
And wind and storm and seasons four,
And while we live and while we die, --
No more.

Nevertheless old ocean's roar,
And wide earth's multitudinous cry,
And echo's pent reverberant store,

Shall hush to silence by and by:
Ah rosy world gone cold and hoar!
Man opes no more a mortal eye,
No more.
