Ianthe's Question

By Walter Savage Landor

1775-1864


'DO you remember me? or are you proud?'
Lightly advancing thro' her star-trimm'd crowd,
         Ianthe said, and look'd into my eyes.
'A yes, a yes to both: for Memory
Where you but once have been must ever be,
         And at your voice Pride from his throne must rise.'
