 | The poetical works of Henry Alford |  |
A cloud is on them—the vision fades—
And cries of woe and fear,
And sounds unblest of neighbouring war,
Are thronging on mine ear:
Long and loud was the battle-cry,
And the groans of them that died;
And once again the mist from the plain
Rolls up the Mendip side.
And cries of woe and fear,
And sounds unblest of neighbouring war,
Are thronging on mine ear:
Long and loud was the battle-cry,
And the groans of them that died;
And once again the mist from the plain
Rolls up the Mendip side.
