SONG, by WILLIAM SOUTAR Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: Whaur yon broken brig hings owre Last Line: Gang doun wi' a sang, gang doun. | |||
WHAUR yon broken brig hings owre; Whaur yon water maks nae soun'; Babylon blaws by in stour: Gang doun wi' a sang, gang doun. Deep, owre deep, for onie drouth: Wan eneuch an ye wud droun: Saut, or seelfu', for the mouth; Gang doun wi' a sang, gang doun. Babylon blaws by in stour Whaur yon water maks nae soun': Darkness is your only door; Gang doun wi' a sang, gang doun. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...IN 'DESIGNING A CLOAK TO CLOAK HIS DESIGNS' YOU WRESTED FROM OBLIVION by MARIANNE MOORE TO A MOSQUITO by WILLIAM CULLEN BRYANT PRELUDES: 1-4 (COMPLETE) by THOMAS STEARNS ELIOT ON THE DEATH OF BENJAMIN FRANKLIN by PHILIP FRENEAU AUNTIE'S SKIRTS by ROBERT LOUIS STEVENSON AEOLIAN HARP (1) by WILLIAM ALLINGHAM EMBLEMS OF LOVE: 43.
