Джойс Килмер (Joyce Kilmer)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

Queen Elizabeth Speaks


My hands were stained with blood, my heart was 
proud and cold,
My soul is black with shame . . . but I gave Shakespeare gold.
So after aeons of flame, I may, by grace of God,
Rise up to kiss the dust that Shakespeare’s feet have trod.
