SEVILLE, by AL-TUTILI First Line: I was bored with old seville Last Line: Than the dribble of a pool. | |||
I was bored with old Seville And Seville was bored with me; Had the city shared my skill To invent abusive rhyme, Rivals in invective, we Would have had a lovely time. So at last my weary heart Could endure no more, and cried It was time that we should part: Water in a cloud is cool, And is much more purified Than the dribble of a pool. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...MARRIAGE by WILLIAM CARLOS WILLIAMS FIDELIS by ADELAIDE ANNE PROCTER LINES TO BE SPOKEN BY THOMAS DENMAN.....WHEN FOUR YEARS OLD by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD LINES TO MR.
