CHRIST TO HIS SPOUSE, by WILLIAM BALDWIN First Line: Lo, thou, my love, art fair Last Line: Most wise. Variant Title(s): The Beloved To The Spouse | |||
Lo, thou, my love, art fair; Myself have made thee so: Yea, thou art fair indeed, Wherefore thou shalt not need In beauty to despair; For I accept thee so, For fair. For fair, because thine eyes Are like the culvers' white, Whose simpleness in deed All others do exceed: Thy judgement wholly lies In true sense of sprite Most wise. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WHEN FIRST MY WAY by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN THE BIVOUAC OF THE DEAD by THEODORE O'HARA EULALIE; A SONG by EDGAR ALLAN POE VALENTINES TO MY MOTHER: 1878 by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI LOUIS XV by JOHN STERLING (1806-1844) SABBATH HYMN ON THE MOUNTAINS by JOHN STUART BLACKIE EMILE ZOLA by MARJORIE W.
