BRECHVA'S HARP-SONG, by ERNEST RHYS Poet's Biography First Line: Little harp, at thy cry Last Line: Him all king! Alternate Author Name(s): Rhys, Ernest Percival Subject(s): Harps; Musical Instruments; Lyres | |||
LITTLE harp, at thy cry, He shall come in good time; And thy sword-song on high, High shall chime. Little harp, in his brain Is the fire; in his hand Are the sword and the rein Of command. Little harp, like the wind Is his strength; like thy song Are his words, to unbind Wales ere long! Little harp, if his name Be unknown, ye shall hear How the stars tell his fame Far and near. Little harp, if unknown He come, ye shall sing When Eryri shall throne Him All King! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE GHOSTS LISTEN TO ORPHEUS SING by GREGORY ORR TO AN AEOLIAN HARP by SARA TEASDALE THE AEOLIAN HARP by SAMUEL TAYLOR COLERIDGE THE MASTER-PLAYER by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR THE HARP by RALPH WALDO EMERSON THE AEOLIAN HARP; AT THE SURF INN by HERMAN MELVILLE THAT HARP YOU PLAY SO WELL by MARIANNE MOORE RUMORS FROM AN AEOLIAN HARP by HENRY DAVID THOREAU AEOLIAN HARP (1) by WILLIAM ALLINGHAM AN AUTOBIOGRAPHY by ERNEST RHYS |
