Poems by Frances Anne Kemble
Lines. "Upon the altar of my life there lies"
... Strike, strike then now, ye lightning fires of sorrow! ...
To My Guardian Angel
... Whose guardian wings hung o'er me from my birth, ...
Sonnet. "Say thou not sadly, "never," and "no more,""
... That which the past hath given the future gives as well ...
The Sirens Cave At Tivoli
... The air resounds with her wild shouts of laughter, ...
Written At Trenton Falls
... That leaps, and rolls, and roars, to swallow thee! ...
Lines. "Serene and pure the fountain flowed"
... 'S WALK, IN WHICH MY COMPANION BENT OVER A CLEAR SPRING WHICH GREW TURBID WITHOUT ANY APPARENT CAUSE ...
Song. "Nonot to win the world's applause"
... I would not strive, I should not care, ...
Sonnet Written Among The Ruins Of The Castle At Heidelberg
... A fortress strong of life, not wrecked by years, ...
Song
... Type of our youth's fond dreams, and cherished hopes, ...
Song. "Pass thy hand through my hair, love"
... It was ripe, and round, and sleek, love, ...
Epitaph
... The good thou knew'st thou strov'st to do, ...
Lines Written At Sea (II)
... All which sweet blossoms are preserved by death ...
Noonday By The Seaside
... Whose green-veined sides, as they receive the light, ...
A Promise. "In the dark, lonely night"
... That woo'd thee still with love's impassioned spell ...
Dream-Land (I)
... My image, all unconscious, through the trance, ...
