Poem by Thomas Edward Brown

Vespers

O blackbird, what a boy you are!
How you do go it!
Blowing your bugle to that one sweet star -
How you do blow it!
And does she hear you, blackbird boy, so far?
or is it wasted breath?
'good Lord! she is so bright
To-night!'
The blackbird saith. 

1. Braddan Vicarage
2. Specula
3. Salve!
4. Ibant Obscuræ
5. I Bended unto Me a Bough
