WHERE THEIR WORM DIETH NOT, AND THE FIRE IS NOT QUENCHED by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI

Poet Analysis

First Line: IN TEMPEST AND STORM, B;ACKNESS OF DARKNESS FOR EVER
Last Line: In tempest and storm
Subject(s): WORMS;
In tempest and storm blackness of darkness for ever,
A fire unextinguished, a worm's indestructible swarm;
Where no hope shall ever be more, and love shall be never,
In tempest and storm;
Where the form of all things is fashionless, void of all form;
Where from death that severeth all, the soul cannot sever
In tempest and storm.
