Poems from the Rossetti MS.: Later Poems

I will tell you what Joseph of Arimathea

I WILL tell you what Joseph of Arimathea

Said to my Fairy: was not it very queer?

‘Pliny and Trajan! What! are you here?

Come before Joseph of Arimathea.

Listen patient, and when Joseph has done

’Twill make a fool laugh, and a fairy fun.’
