Луиза Имоджен Гвини (Louise Imogen Guiney)




Текст оригинала на английском языке

Writ in My Lord Clarendon’s “History of the Rebellion”


How life hath cheapened, and how blank
The Worlde is! like a fen
Where long ago unstainèd sank
The starrie gentlemen:
Since Marston Moor and Newbury drank
King Charles his gentlemen.

If Fate in any air accords
What Fate denied, O then
I ask to be among your Swordes,
My joyous gentlemen;
Towards Honour’s heaven to goe, and towards
King Charles his gentlemen!
