Poems by Alfred Austin
A Farewell To Youth
... But down life's slope go hand-in-hand with Time ...
To Ellen Terry
... Nay, bring forth none but daughters: daughters young, ...
Too Late
... 'Neath scorching sunshine or through drifting showers ...
Any Poet At Any Time
... What should have been, what now must ever be, ...
The Season
... put to rout Those skilful skirmishers the heart sends out ...
A Dream Of England
... Then flashed on her a bolt that scorched and seared ...
" When in the long--drawn avenues of Thought"
... Premature sleep would bring that settled End, ...
Farewell
... So shall our Love's enduring glow ...
The Fallen Elm
... `Nor will swain and his sweet, when the wain's in the shed, ...
Is Life Worth Living?
... And the owlet hoots from hollow stump, ...
Look Seaward, Sentinel!
... Sentinel I see weeping and wailing, and the bridegroom ruthlessly torn ...
Dead!
... Shall spill my ink and spoil my quill, ...
A Wintry Picture
... And, in the sculptured woodland's leafless aisles, ...
The Golden Year!
... But the wintry fields stretched stiff and stark, ...
When Acorns Fall
... Her brightening gaze, though day and dark have met, ...
