AS THE DOVES TO THEIR WINDOWS, by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: They throng from the east and the west Last Line: They throng. Alternate Author Name(s): Alleyne, Ellen; Rossetti, Christina | |||
THEY throng from the east and the west, The north and the south, with a song; To golden abodes of their rest They throng. Eternity stretches out long: Time, brief at its worst or its best, Will quit them of ruin and wrong. A rainbow aloft for their crest, A palm for their weakness made strong: As doves breast all winds to their nest, They throng. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...ITALIA, IO TI SALUTO!' by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI THE HEART KNOWETH ITS OWN BITTERNESS' (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BED OF FORGET-ME-NOTS by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BETTER RESURRECTION by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A BIRTHDAY by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A CHRISTMAS CAROL (1) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A CHRISTMAS CAROL (2) by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A DIRGE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A LIFE'S PARALLELS by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI A PAUSE by CHRISTINA GEORGINA ROSSETTI |
