Poem: Queen Henrietta Maria
上海龙凤shlf最新地址Poem: Queen Henrietta Maria
(To Ellen Terry)
In the lone tent, waiting for victory,
上海龙凤shlf最新地址She stands with eyes marred by the mists of pain,
上海龙凤shlf最新地址Like some wan lily overdrenched with rain:
上海龙凤shlf最新地址The clamorous clang of arms, the ensanguined sky,
War's ruin, and the wreck of chivalry
To her proud soul no common fear can bring:
上海龙凤shlf最新地址Bravely she tarrieth for her Lord the King,
上海龙凤shlf最新地址Her soul a-flame with passionate ecstasy.
O Hair of Gold! O Crimson Lips! O Face
Made for the luring and the love of man!
With thee I do forget the toil and stress,
The loveless road that knows no resting place,
上海龙凤shlf最新地址Time's straitened pulse, the soul's dread weariness,
My freedom, and my life republican!
