Explore "Luscious and Sorrowful" by Christina Georgina Rossetti on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Beautiful, tender, wasting away for sorrow; / Thus to-day; and how shall it be with thee to-morrow? / Beautiful, tender -- what else? / A hope tells.
Beautiful, tender, keeping the jubilee / In the land of home together, past death and sea; / No more change or death, no more / Salt sea-shore.
