Poems by Adam Lindsay Gordon
A Dedication
... Where, with fire and fierce drought on her tresses, ...
A Song of Autumn
... On the brown-burnt banks, when the wild winds blow, ...
An Exile's Farewell
... Nor will I shed them now!Against the bulwarks on the poop ...
Gone
... That the bravest and fairest are earth-worms food, ...
The Last Leap
... In a stifled tone Rest, old friend! thy day, though rife ...
The Sick Stockrider
... as he saved his neck so long! Ah! those days and nights we squandered at the Logans' in the glen -- ...
The Swimmer
... Yet bides the gift of darkness -- sleep!See! girt with tempest and wing'd with thunder, ...
Thora's Song ('Ashtaroth')
... There are tears in the night-dews wetting -- ...
Whispering in Wattle -Boughs
... voices that are vaguely whispering! Oh, tell me, father mine, ere the good ship crossed the brine, ...
The Death Of Nelson
... When the fleets of England, France, and Spain ...
Delilah
... Pause not till thy strength shall forsake thee, ...
Hippodromania; Or, Whiffs From The Pipe
... Stride for stride! stroke for stroke! through one hurdle we've broke! ...
Doubtful Dreams
... For the great things of earth are small things, ...
To A Proud Beauty
... "A Valentine" Though I have loved you well, I ween, ...
Pastor Cum
... Behold A warrior, than his sire more fierce and fell, ...
