THE UNKNOWN COUNTRY, by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK Poet's Biography First Line: Where is the unknown country? Last Line: With willing heart I go. Alternate Author Name(s): Mulock, Dinah Maria | |||
WHERE is the unknown country?" I whispered sad and slow, -- "The strange and awful country To which I soon must go, must go, To which I soon must go?" Out of the unknown country A voice sang soft and low: -- "O pleasant is that country And sweet it is to go, to go, And sweet it is to go. "Along the shining country The peaceful rivers flow: And in that wondrous country The tree of life does grow, does grow, The tree of life does grow." Ah, then into that country Of which I nothing know, The everlasting country, With willing heart I go, I go, With willing heart I go. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...DOUGLAS, DOUGLAS, TENDER AND TRUE by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK HER LIKENESS by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK NOW AND AFTERWARDS by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK ONLY A WOMAN by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK PHILIP, MY KING by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK A 'MERCENARY' MARRIAGE by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK A CHILD'S SMILE by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK A CHRISTMAS CAROL by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK A DEAD BABY by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK A DEAD SEA-GULL; NEAR LIVERPOOL by DINAH MARIA MULOCK CRAIK |
