FRAGMENT OF OLDE STUFFE, by JAMES A. BRILL First Line: Oh, heavy clouds have hid the mellow sun Last Line: Full:—hopelessly. | |||
Oh, heavy clouds have hid the mellow sun Full hopelessly; The tired year's creaking course is all but run, The were-wolf howl of chill blasts has begun; Life's joy doth vanish (when the summer's done)— Full hopelessly. So deem not me as wicked, wild, or rude (—Full hopelessly—) If guides me on this melancholy mood, I barter cash for what some imp has brewed, And, sprawling by my hearth-fire, get quite stewed— Full:—hopelessly. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...LAURA SLEEPING; ODE by CHARLES COTTON HABEAS CORPUS by HELEN MARIA HUNT FISKE JACKSON WORK by MARGARET STEELE ANDERSON FRAGMENT (2) by ANNA LETITIA BARBAULD PSALM 81 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE HOSPITAL FLOWERS by MRS.
