The Poems of Sophie Jewett (Classic Reprint)
Excerpt from The Poems of Sophie Jewett The poetry of Sophie Jewett is too wide in its appeal to need interpretation through biography; and one would turn in vain to the poems for a story of her life. Yet those who have felt the sway of her art may well wish for a knowledge of her life in its personal relations and surroundings; and much of her own experience lies half-hidden in the poems. The "little fountain in the park" sings its "summer song" before her girlhood home; in her "coign of vantage" whence wheatfield and pasture stretch in sight she spent many August hours; White Head rises sheer from the waters of Casco Bay on which she used to sail; and she heard "the least of carols" among ...

The Pearl
Sophie Jewett's modern English version of 'The Pearl' makes this important Middle English poem accessible to modern readers. The dream vision, written in a North-West Midlands Middle English with elements of allegory, follows a grieving father who encounters the Pearl-maiden, a beautiful woman who imparts Christian doctrine and reveals an image of the Heavenly City. Though the Dreamer awakens before crossing the stream, the poem's profound exploration of spirituality and the afterlife continues to captivate readers today.
The Pearl
The Pearl by Sophie Jewett Pearl that the Prince full well might prize, So surely set in shining gold!No pearl of Orient with her vies;To prove her peerless I make bold: So round, so radiant to mine eyes, smooth she seemed, so small to hold, Among all jewels judges wiseWould count her best an hundred fold.Alas! I lost my pearl of old!I pine with heart-pain unforgot;Down through my arbour grass it rolled, My own pearl, precious, without spot.
