Alfred Edward Housman (1859- 1936)
Alfred Edward Housman Biography
With Rue My Heart is Laden
WITH rue my heart is laden
For golden friends I had,
For many a rose-lipt maiden
And many a lightfoot lad.
By brooks too broad for leaping
The lightfoot boys are laid;
The rose-lipt girls are sleeping
In fields where roses fade.
