Explore "In Memoriam a. H. H" by Alfred Tennyson on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
With such compelling cause to grieve / As daily vexes household peace, / And chains regret to his decease, / How dare we keep our Christmas-eve;
Which brings no more a welcome guest / To enrich the threshold of the night / With shower'd largess of delight / In dance and song and game and jest?
