The Beleaguered City

Explore "The Beleaguered City" by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.

I have read, in some old, marvellous tale, / Some legend strange and vague, / That a midnight host of spectres pale / Beleaguered the walls of Prague.

Beside the Moldau's rushing stream, / With the wan moon overhead, / There stood, as in an awful dream, / The army of the dead.
