OCTAVES IN AN OXFORD GARDEN: 7, by ARTHUR W. UPSON Poet's Biography First Line: Here did wren make himself a student home Last Line: Adown the wall as then he saw it roam. Subject(s): Oxfordshire, England | ||||||||
Here did Wren make himself a student home Or e'er he made a name that England loves. I wonder, as he watched yon chapel doves If he did have some foresight of that dome On Lud's old Hill where now their coveys come, With them that bear his name, in lofty coves. I wonder if this straying shadow moves Adown the wall as then he saw it roam. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...EPITAPH FOR RICHARD COLSBORNE, 1715; WOODSTOCK by UNKNOWN ON THE MONUMENT OF ROBERT CREWS, D.1731, IN THAME CHURCH by UNKNOWN A MOTIVE OUT OF LOHENGRIN by ARTHUR W.
