Won't you help support DayPoems? Spring Bereaved 3By William Drummond, of Hawthornden1585-1649ALEXIS, here she stay'd; among these pines, Sweet hermitress, she did alone repair; Here did she spread the treasure of her hair, More rich than that brought from the Colchian mines. She set her by these musked eglantines, --The happy place the print seems yet to bear: Her voice did sweeten here thy sugar'd lines, To which winds, trees, beasts, birds, did lend their ear. Me here she first perceived, and here a morn Of bright carnations did o'erspread her face; Here did she sigh, here first my hopes were born, And I first got a pledge of promised grace: But ah! what served it to be happy so? Sith passed pleasures double but new woe? DayPoems Poem No. 228 Comment on DayPoems? If you are like us, you have strong feelings about poetry, and about each poem you read. Let it all out!
