SACRIFICE, by AL-TUTILI First Line: Accept the sacrifice I made Last Line: And how I never was content? | |||
Accept the sacrifice I made (If offerings your conscience wake) Recalling how I disobeyed The voice of censure for your sake. Do you remember the long nights That you and I together spent, And how you grudged me no delights, And how I never was content? | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ODE TO THE JOHNS HOPKINS UNIVERSITY by SIDNEY LANIER AMERICAN NAMES by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET AT CANDLE-LIGHTIN' TIME by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR AT THE TAVERN by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR CHRIST'S KINGDOM AMONG THE GENTILES by ISAAC WATTS CHARACTERS: MR.
