Poems by Alfred Noyes
Name Sakes
... And she sailed to the West, where the broad waters flow ...
A Prayer
... Of this pitiless heart, and appease these pangs that convulse ...
The Man Who Discovered The Use Of A Chair
... You should sit, quite still, in your chair and say: ...
The Old Gentleman With The Amber Snuff-Box
... .. in verse; And, to be sure that Rosalind reads it through, ...
To A Successful Man
... . . . What will you give us now for that lost good ...
Republic And Motherland
... Still, at these towers, our Old-World cities jest, ...
Princeton, May, 1917
... They see you piercing like gray swords through flowers, ...
Cap'n Storm-Along
... With a bright eye for Huns, and a Hotchkiss to kiss 'em ...
The Vindictive
... For if, as we think, they remembered the brown-roofed homesteads, ...
Victory
... Attempt new heights, bring even their dreams to birth:-- ...
Fishers Of Men
... Leave your brown nets and bring ...
The Elfin Artist
... And the shadows on soft white cloud-peaks ...
The Moon is Up
... We're sick of all the cringing knees, ...
Old Japan
... Could eer such hours of flowers bestrow ...
The Road Through Chaos
... And your own heart, and the world's heart, pulse in rhyme ...
