HOW MANY, by MATTHEW BILLER First Line: How many came seeking for food? Last Line: A thief, and a murderer...We three. | ||||||||
How many came seeking for food? Rank upon rank, a multitude. How many came to the wedding feast? Many were there, two score at least. How many, Master, on whom thou relied? There were twelve who followed close at my side. How many went to the cross with thee? A thief, and a murderer...we three. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE RIGHT TO DIE by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR BELISARIUS by HENRY WADSWORTH LONGFELLOW THE COUNTRY CLERGYMAN'S TRIP TO CAMBRIDGE; ELECTION BALLAD by THOMAS BABINGTON MACAULAY THE PILGRIM FATHERS by JOHN PIERPONT THE HAPPY LIFE OF A COUNTRY PARSON by ALEXANDER POPE IDENTITY by THOMAS BAILEY ALDRICH A DEDICATION TO ATHENE by AULUS LICINIUS ARCHIAS |
