TWO BRILLIANTS, by JANE BLAKESLEE RICHARDS First Line: Two trod by - ways of poesy one day Last Line: Of worth and wisdom from the realm of thought. Subject(s): Jewelry & Jewelers | |||
Two trod by-ways of poesy one day, And each by chance a sparkling brilliant found. Joyful they were that fortune led their way Along this path of Art's enchanted ground. One brought his jewel where it might engage The eyes to note and praise its rare design. Lustrous it lay upon the printed page, A gleaming solitaire from the poet's mine. The other had for human good a dream. With heart and brain afire he tireless wrought And set his gem to beautify a theme Of worth and wisdom from the realm of thought. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...THE KING'S JEWEL by PHOEBE CARY THE LOST JEWEL by EMILY DICKINSON THE BRACELET: TO JULIA by ROBERT HERRICK ANTIQUE JEWELER by FREDERICK HENRY HERBERT ADLER MY JEWEL CASE by BESSE BURNETT BELL COLOR by JANE BLAKESLEE RICHARDS DOWN BY THE CARIB SEA: 5.
