Algernon Charles Swinburne - A Landscape By CourbetAlgernon Charles Swinburne - A Landscape By Courbet
Work rating: Low


Low lies the mere beneath the moorside, still And glad of silence:  down the wood sweeps clear To the utmost verge where fed with many a rill   Low lies the mere. The wind speaks only summer:  eye nor ear Sees aught at all of dark, hears aught of shrill, From sound or shadow felt or fancied here. Strange, as we praise the dead man`s might and skill, Strange that harsh thoughts should make such heavy cheer, While, clothed with peace by heaven`s most gentle will,   Low lies the mere.
