ALFRED, LORD TENNYSON
Selected Poetry
MARIANA
âMariana in the moated grange.â
Measure for Measure
With blackest moss the flower-plots
Were thickly crusted, one and all:
The rusted nails fell from the knots
That held the pear to the gable-wall.
The broken sheds lookâd sad and strange:
Unlifted was the clinking latch;
Weeded and worn the ancient thatch
Upon the lonely moated grange.
She only said, âMy life is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said; 10
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â
Her tears fell with the dews at even;
Her tears fell ere the dews were dried;
She could not look on the sweet heaven,
Either at morn or eventide.
After the flitting of the bats,
When thickest dark did trance the sky,
She drew her casement-curtain by,
And glanced athwart the glooming flats. 20
She only said, âThe night is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said;
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â
Upon the middle of the night,
Waking she heard the night-fowl crow:
The cock sung out an hour ere light:
From the dark fen the oxenâs low
Came to her: without hope of change,
In sleep she seemâd to walk forlorn, 30
Till cold winds woke the gray-eyed morn
About the lonely moated grange.
She only said, âThe day is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said;
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â
About a stone-cast from the wall
A sluice with blackenâd waters slept,
And oâer it many, round and small,
The clusterâd marish-mosses crept. 40
Hard by a poplar shook alway,
All silver-green with gnarled bark:
For leagues no other tree did mark
The level waste, the rounding gray.
She only said, âMy life is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said;
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â
And ever when the moon was low,
And the shrill winds were up and away, 50
In the white curtain, to and fro,
She saw the gusty shadow sway.
But when the moon was very low,
And wild winds bound within their cell,
The shadow of the poplar fell
Upon her bed, across her brow.
She only said, âThe night is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said;
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â 60
All day within the dreamy house,
The doors upon their hinges creakâd;
The blue fly sung in the pane; the mouse
Behind the mouldering wainscot shriekâd,
Or from the crevice peerâd about.
Old faces glimmerâd throâ the doors,
Old footsteps trod the upper floors,
Old voices called her from without.
She only said, âMy life is dreary,
He cometh not,â she said; 70
She said, âI am aweary, aweary,
I would that I were dead!â
The sparrowâs chirrup on the roof,
The slow clock ticking, and the sound
Which to the wooing wind aloof
The poplar made, did all confound
Her sense; but most she loathed the hour
When the thick-moted sunbeam lay
Athwart the chambers, and the day
Was sloping toward his western bower. 80
Then, said she, âI am very dreary,
He will not come,â she said;
She wept, âI am aweary, aweary,
Oh God, that I were dead!â
SONG
I
A spirit haunts the yearâs last hours
Dwelling amid these yellowing bowers:
To himself he talks;
For at eventide, listening earnestly,
At his work you may hear him sob and sigh
In the walks;
Earthward he boweth the heavy stalks
Of the mouldering flowers:
Heavily hangs the broad sunflower
Over its grave iâ the earth so chilly; 10
Heavily hangs the hollyhock,
Heavily hangs the tiger-lily.
II
The air is damp, and hushâd, and close,
As a sick manâs room when he taketh repose
An hour before death;
My very heart faints and my whole soul grieves
At the moist rich smell of the rotting leaves,
And the breath
Of the fading edges of box beneath,
And the yearâs last rose. 20
Heavily hangs the broad sunflower
Over its grave iâ the earth so chilly;
Heavily hangs the hollyhock,
Heavily hangs the tiger-lily.
THE LADY OF SHALOTT
Part I
On either side the river lie
Long fields of barley and of rye,
That clothe the wold and meet the sky;
And throâ the field the road runs by
To many-towerâd Camelot;
And up and down ...
