Percy Bysshe Shelley

Here you will find the Poem Wake The Serpent Not of poet Percy Bysshe Shelley

Wake The Serpent Not

Wake the serpent not?lest he
Should not know the way to go,--
Let him crawl which yet lies sleeping
Through the deep grass of the meadow!
Not a bee shall hear him creeping, 
Not a may-fly shall awaken
From its cradling blue-bell shaken,
Not the starlight as he?s sliding
Through the grass with silent gliding.
