AN INSCRIPTION BY THE SEA, by GLAUCUS OF NICOPOLIS Poet's Biography First Line: No dust have I to cover me, / my grave no man may show Last Line: Is what the sea-birds know. | |||
No dust have I to cover me, My grave no man may show; My tomb is this unending sea, And I lie far below. My fate, O stranger, was to drown; And where it was the ship went down Is what the sea-birds know. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PAN AND DAPHNIS by GLAUCUS OF NICOPOLIS POSTHUMOUS by GEORGIA DOUGLAS JOHNSON A LOVER'S QUARREL by ROBERT BROWNING ECHOES: 7 by WILLIAM ERNEST HENLEY A CALIFORNIA CHRISTMAS by CINCINNATUS HEINE MILLER ON THE UNIVERSITY CARRIER by JOHN MILTON AN ESSAY ON MAN by ALEXANDER POPE TO THE DAISY (1) by WILLIAM WORDSWORTH |
