VERSES, by HONORAT DU BUEIL First Line: If for friendship many a day Last Line: Have for only wage--a song. Alternate Author Name(s): Racan, Seigneur De | |||
IF for friendship many a day, Trouble and solicitude, I with verses only pay, Do not such poor guerdon lay To your friend's ingratitude. For the gods whose virtues you Closely with your own pursue-- Virtues rare on every side-- Howsoever much and long They for thankless men provide, Have for only wage--a song. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE WIND AT THE DOOR by WILLIAM BARNES GRENADIER by ALFRED EDWARD HOUSMAN AMORETTI: 15 by EDMUND SPENSER IN MEMORIAM A.H.H.: 67 by ALFRED TENNYSON MARCHING THROUGH GEORGIA by HENRY CLAY WORK THE GLORIOUS TOUCHDOWN by GEORGE ADE BRIDAL SERENADE by THOMAS LOVELL BEDDOES THE IMPROVISATORE: THE INDUCTION TO THE THIRD FYTTE by THOMAS LOVELL BEDDOES |
