Poetry examples for “others”

Excerpts from the ReadingWillow English Library collection.

Souls undone, undoing others,-
Long time since the tale began.

’Tis spring; come out to ramble .
Others, I am not the first
On Wenlock Edge the wood’s in trouhle

Others, I am not the first,
Have willed more mischief than they durst:

Tis spring; come out toramble . .
Others, I am not the first . -
On Wenlock Edge the wood’s in trouble

These set the head, and those divide the hair,
Some fold the sleeve, whilst others plait the gown:
And Betty's prais'd for labours not her own.

So perish all, whose breast ne'er learn'd to glow
For others' good, or melt at others' woe.

Thus from the world fair Zephalinda flew,
Saw others happy, and with sighs withdrew;
Not that their pleasures caused her discontent,

WHO, BEING AT HARVEST-WORK
(WITH SEVERAL OTHERS),
WERE IN ONE INSTANT KILLED BY LIGHTNING,

11 Solicitous for others' ends,
Though fond of dear repose;

Now nothing left, but wither'd, pale, and shrunk,
To bawd for others, and go shares with punk.
