BATTLE, by AL-TUTILI First Line: Bright as moon serenely burning Last Line: Halo, circled him about. | |||
Bright as moon serenely burning, Brave as lion: so he burst Where the mills of war were turning And the battle raged its worst. As I saw the lances gleaming Round his brow, I was in doubt If a forest, or a beaming Halo, circled him about. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WHEN LOVE WAS BORN by SARA TEASDALE LANCER by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN AFTER THE BURIAL by JAMES RUSSELL LOWELL THE SWAN SONG OF PARSON AVERY by JOHN GREENLEAF WHITTIER FANNIE by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH |
