DAUGHTER OF ZEUS, by RICHARD ALDINGTON Poem Explanation Poet Analysis Poet's Biography First Line: No | |||
No! We will not slay the moon, For she is the fairest of the daughters of Zeus, Of the maidens of Olympus. And though she be pale and yet more pale Gazing upon dead men And fierce disastrous strife, Yet for us she is still a frail lily Floating upon a calm pool- Still a tall lady Comforting our human despair. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...AT THE BRITISH MUSEUM by RICHARD ALDINGTON IN THE TRENCHES by RICHARD ALDINGTON VICARIOUS ATONEMENT by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 1 by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 2 by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 3 by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 4 by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 5 by RICHARD ALDINGTON IMAGES: 6 by RICHARD ALDINGTON |
