The Three Taverns is a collection of poems by American poet Edwin Arlington Robinson, first published in 1920. The title refers to the three stages of life: youth, middle age, and old age, which are explored in the poems. The collection includes some of Robinson's most famous works, such as Miniver Cheevy and Richard Cory. The poems in The Three Taverns are characterized by their introspective and melancholic tone, exploring themes of isolation, disillusionment, and the human condition. Robinson's use of traditional forms and meter, such as sonnets and ballads, adds to the collection's classical feel. Overall, The Three Taverns is a masterful work of poetry that delves deep into the complexities of life, offering poignant and thought-provoking insights into the human experience. It remains a beloved and influential work in American literature.And if she thought it followed her, She may have reasoned in the dark That one way of the few there were Would hide her and would leave no mark: Black water, smooth above the weir Like starry velvet in the night, Though ruffled once, would soon appear The same as ever to the sight.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
