Poems by Anne Killigrew
An Invective against Gold
... Mens Faith betray'd, their Prince and Country Sold, ...
The Miseries of Man
... The long neglected Reins let Reason keep, The Charret mount, and use both Lash and Bit, ...
Upon the saying that my VERSES were made by another.
... Adorn'd in Plumes, I not my own could call: Rifl'd like her, each one my Feathers tore, ...
On the Birth-Day of Queen Katherine
... But through a cloudy and a troubl'd Sky, Some fixt a Throne, and Royal Robes display'd, ...
TO My Lord Colrane, In Answer to his Complemental Verses sent me under the Name of CLEANOR
... For Fame, in Merit, as in Title, high! The Severe Goddess thus approv'd the Laies: ...
The Discontent.
... O Wretched Labour crown'd with such a Meed! Too loud, O Fame! thy Trumpet is, too shrill, ...
A Pastoral Dialogue (Melibæus, Alcippe, Asteria, Licida, Alcimedon, and Amira. )
... With Imperfections no less Great, did stain: For proud he was, of an Ungovern'd Will, ...
On my Aunt Mrs A. K. Drown'd under London-Bridge, in the QUEENS Bardge, Anno 1641.
... When angry Heav'n extinguisht her fair Light, ...
On a young Lady Whose LORD was Travelling.
... Celinda nam'd, Flow'rs spring up from the Ground, ...
ON THE Dutchess of Grafton Under the Name of Alinda.
... A SONG.I. TH'ambitious Eye that seeks alone, ...
Penelope to Ulysses.
... For though thou'rt burn'd, my Lord does not return ...
An Epitaph on her Self.
... WHen I am Dead, few Friends attend my Hearse, ...
An ODE.
... II. The Bird to whom the spacious Aire was given, ...
Extemporary Counsel given to a Young Gallant in a Frolick.
... When Vertue you dare own, not think it odd, ...
Cloris Charmes Dissolved by EUDORA.
... The Noise must guide thy Feet, For there's no Light, ...
