Charles Wolfe

Summary

Portrait of Charles Wolfe Charles Wolfe,  Modern reciter (1829)

“ We thought-as we hollow'd his narrow bed,
⁠And smooth'd down his lonely pillow-
How the foe and the stranger would tread o'er his head,
⁠And we far away on the billow!
Lightly they'll talk of the spirit that's gone,
⁠And o'er his cold ashes upbraid him
”
