SONG: 16, by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD Poet's Biography First Line: I could not through the burning day Last Line: If love should fail. Alternate Author Name(s): Radford, Ernest, Mrs. | |||
I COULD not through the burning day In hope prevail, Beside my task I could not stay, If love should fail. Nor underneath the evening sky, When labours cease, Fold both my tired hands and lie At last in peace. Ah, what to me in death or life Could then avail! I dare not ask for rest or strife If love should fail. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...A BALLAD OF VICTORY by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A BRIDE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A CONCERT by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A DREAM OF 'DREAMS' by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A MODEL by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A MODERN POLYPHEME by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A NOVEMBER ROSE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A NOVICE by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A PORTRAIT by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD A PRAYER by DOLLIE CAROLINE MAITLAND RADFORD |
