LITTLE KING, by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSONPoet AnalysisPoet's Biography
First Line: From worshipping I now arise Last Line: Will love you well, nor love you long. Alternate Author Name(s): Tremaine, John
From worshipping I now arise Stunned and aghast, with open eyes I see the real, the little you I thought so gallant, brave and true.
A pity yet is mine, I fear, Since wherefore comes this falling tear, For none among your fawning throng Will love you well, nor love you long.
