Here lies a Bard, a Son of Song,
Whose lay was meant to cheer,
But alas! his life was spent in wrong,
And naught but woe came here.
Whose lay was meant to cheer,
But alas! his life was spent in wrong,
And naught but woe came here.
English poet of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Known for "Goblin Market" and devotional verse of exquisite craftsmanship.
