THE RAINBOW by JOHN BANISTER TABB

First Line: WHAT FRUIT OF ALL THY BLOSSOM SHED
Last Line: "TO HEIGHTS OF POESY."
Subject(s): RAINBOWS;

What fruit of all thy blossom shed
Remaineth unto me?
"A dream, whereon thy fancy fed,
Shall spin anon her golden thread,
And then, of fetters free,
Arise with radiant pinions spread
To heights of poesy."
