Explore "Will none say of Sappho" by Bliss Carman on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Will none say of Sappho, / Speaking of her lovers, / And the love they gave her, -- / Joy and days and beauty, / Flute-playing and roses, / Song and wine and laughter, --
Will none, musing, murmur, / "Yet, for all the roses, / All the flutes and lovers, / Doubt not she was lonely / As the sea, whose cadence / Haunts the world for ever. "
