Poems by Frances Anne Kemble
An Apology
... If thou ever must weep, may it shine through thy weeping, ...
Arrival In Rome
... Thus towards the south my spirit's flight was turned, ...
Sonnet. "Beside a well-reap'd field at Eventide"
... "These have done well their work," he said, and sigh'd, ...
Song. "The moment must come, when the hands that unite"
... When the eyes that have beamed o'er us brightly to-night, ...
A Rejected Lover To His Mistress (II)
... E'en, fairest mistress! for your sake, no prize ...
A Wish (I)
... Live like the gorgeous western light that shone ...
Sonnet. "Thou art to me like one, who in a dream"
... For while thou didst pass dreaming, careless, on, ...
Evening
... And as he sinks through waves of amber light, ...
Eastern Sunset
... While each rippling wave on the bright shore is throwing ...
Sonnet. "I know that thou wilt read what here is writ"
... These words can't falter, like the words I speak, ...
Lines. "To the smooth beach the silver sea"
... Have made life's journeying-land so fair ...
Sonnet. "Thou who sitt'st listening to the midnight wind"
... Are struck with madness, and that o'er their mind ...
The Fall Of Richmond
... Where nations, serving Thee, tow'rds light advance, ...
Sonnet. "Away, away! bear me away, away"
... And leav'st this weary world, far, far behind! ...
Expectation
... Too sweet the trust on which you leant, ...
