User talk:Phil wink/English alexandrine

Emma Lazarus used alexandrine in one of her translations from medieval Jewish poetry.


 * O city of the world, with sacred splendor blest,
 * My spirit yearns to thee from out the far-off West,
 * A stream of love wells forth when I recall thy day,
 * Now is thy temple waste, thy glory passed away.
