Mary Elizabeth Coleridge Earth Poems
1. Chillingham
I
Through the sunny garden
The humming bees are still;
The fir climbs the heather, ...
2. Our Lady
MOTHER of God! no lady thou:
Common woman of common earth
Our Lady ladies call thee now,
But Christ was never of gentle birth; ...
3. Affection
The earth that made the rose,
She also is thy mother, and not I.
The flame wherewith thy maiden spirit glows
Was lighted at no hearth that I sit by. ...
4. Street Lanterns
Country roads are yellow and brown.
We mend the roads in London town.
Never a hansom dare come nigh, ...
5. Death And The Lady
TURN in, my lord, she said ;
As it were the Father of Sin
I have hated the Father of the Dead,
The slayer of my kin ; ...
6. The Other Side Of A Mirror
I sat before my glass one day,
And conjured up a vision bare,
Unlike the aspects glad and gay,
That erst were found reflected there - ...
7. The Witch
I HAVE walked a great while over the snow,
And I am not tall nor strong.
My clothes are wet, and my teeth are set,
And the way was hard and long. ...
