A DIRGE

[Published by Mrs. Shelley, Posthumous Poems, 1824.]

Rough wind, that moanest loud
Grief too sad for song;
Wild wind, when sullen cloud
Knells all the night long;
Sad storm whose tears are vain, 5
Bare woods, whose branches strain,[1]
Deep caves and dreary main,—
Wail, for the world's wrong!

  1. A Dirge—6 strain cj. Rossetti; stain ed. 1824.

This work was published before January 1, 1929, and is in the public domain worldwide because the author died at least 100 years ago.
